2.10: cursor jumps around.
Just started to use Puppy 2.10. Looks good so far. Cannot get mouse to behave, cursor jumps all over the place. Tried switching my Logitech wireless to an old PS2. Still jumps all over. Hard to make adjustments without a mouse. Many thanks from a rank beginner.

Jumping Cursor
No, my computer is not a Compaq, it's a no brand put together by myself that has worked fine for three years.
exit X (hit ctrl-alt-backspace)
Now edit the X configuration, type:
mp /etc/X11/xorg.conf
search for such a line
change the one with protocol to
Save, it, press ctrl-a for the menu to save.
Reboot the computer.
Does that work?
I assume that you chose "xorg" when you could choose between xorg and xvesa, when you could set up your graficscard.
You also could run xorgwizard again, to try xvesa (but xorg should be preferred in general, xvesa is just a fallback-solution).
