[ale] PS/2 to Serial Mouse

[Courtney Thomas]

Be sure your hard/soft settings are correct for com[1-4] and that the 
port is properly and completely connected inside the box. Also check 
that the adapter is adequately plugged-in to the ps2 and serial connectors.

You may also need to go through a sequence to in RH to properly install 
the mouse.

I have several of these running and they are a bit problematic to 
install but do work.
