Has anyone had any success with a laser mouse. I just purchased a Logitech V150 and it is very jumpy with puppy 2.13. Any ideas how to get these puppies working correctly?

How to set mouse speed?
you could try slowing down the mouse speed ... in an rxvt console, type:
xset m 1/2
set the number to whatever value you like ... 1, 2, 3, 2/3, 5/3 etc etc
if you find a setting that you like, you can put the command in the hidden file .xinitrc, in /root, like this:
xset m 2/3
#exec $CURRENTWM

xset m 1/2
set the number to whatever value you like ... 1, 2, 3, 2/3, 5/3 etc etc

Laser Mouse? Any success?
Like you I have a Logitech Laser mouse and have found that working with Puppy does not always provide everything on the box.
According to their site they offer little hope under the heading :
Non-Windows Operating Systems Compatibility
of us getting a fully working mouse. It would be a better thing if the blaggards would put the information at point of sale.
Perhaps it might be better to post as a general question on Logitech mice and see what the best results have been. I am still finding my way here and have not even given the mouse a thought.
Sorry I can not offer too much hope but perhaps this may assist others in choice of mice.

guys,
I found these links with some xorg config settings .....
h-ttp://www.abclinuxu.cz/hardware/show/156110
h-ttp://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Advanced_Mouse/Individual_Configurations
So I think I need to use the evdev driver in my xorg.conf ..
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "usbmys"
Driver "evdev"
Option "Name" "Logitech USB Optical Mouse"
Option "HWHEELRelativeAxisButtons" "7 6"
EndSection
But when I try to startx nothing happens. There are no outputs in dmesg.
The evdev module seems to exist as I can modprobe the module.
Not sure where to go to next.

You might be able to find error messages in the log file:
/var/log/Xorg.0.log
That's about all I can tell you.
