This has fixed the PS/2 mouse when I booted my disk image into Mandrake
10.1.  Thank you!

It also mostly fixed PS/2 mouse functionality when I booted the image
into Windows 98.  However, I have to move the mouse very slowly, even
though the mouse cursor does not move very far in the process.  If I
move it suddenly, the mouse cursor just jumps from one edge of the
screen to another.  Even lifting up my ball based mouse to readjust the
position of my mouse physically causes this problem.

May be this is just due to the mouse acceleration detection.  However,
what I find weirder is that when the cursor jumps around, it sometimes
decides to automatically click the mouse button for me causing menus to
appear when I don't expect them to...

Thanks,
Gervase.
