Under MS-DOS my Logitech mouse works as it should. Under 1.2.13,
1.3.14, and 1.3.21 the mouse is invisible to gpm 1.00. Going back to
MS-DOS, I watched the mouse on COM1 at 1200 but trying to do the same
thing with kermit gave "communications disconnect" as soon as I moved
the mouse. I can't find anything unusual with yamm.
"Cat /proc/interrupts" shows a busrt of 5 or 10 counts on the serial
interrupt count every time the mouse moves or a button is pushed.

I've just changed the motherboard to a Pentium with two on-board
serial ports configured as COM1 and COM2. The same mouse worked with
old motherboard. Ideas??
