Actually, I’ve never had a problem on install (with wireless)... it (Mint KDE) recognized everything during the installation (instantly, it seemed), and all of my systems since about 1990 were home built.

Mint recognized my devices but the mouse would not work correctly in that it would move, freeze, move, freeze, move, freeze. At least it recognized the monitors but with mouse continually freezing up I had to move on. Of course none of the other installs were any better, but if I can’t move my mouse freely what’s the point in having the Linux O/S?

To: Bikkuri; All
I reloaded Linux Mint unto another hard drive and played around with it a bit. I'm still having problem with my mouse though, wired and wireless. They both keep cutting in and out. I've seen posted on various boards but I don't understand what the fixes are they are talking about, something about kernels and recompiling.

Anyone have any suggestions?
