Mark:
This is what I have been doing so far.
I can get to the "mouse" option, but when I hit enter on it, I just get a
bunch of "buttons" lists I can't read, and some options regarding pointer
speed, etc.. There is a hardware tab also, but that just seems to list the
kind of touch-pad mouse it is.
I'll keep trying, though, and get some sighted assistance if needed.
Please keep those suggestions coming, folks, if you have them.
