6. Mouse Configuration

Like the keyboard configuration, the defaults should work fine. If you can use your mouse in the install program, the settings that it detects should work fine. If you like, you can turn on "Emulate 3-Buttons" even if you have a three button mouse. If you have a serial mouse, double check that the serial port selected at the bottom of the screen is correct (tty0 equals COM1, tty1 equals COM2, etc.).

6.1 What this Does

This tells the system how to interface with your mouse and how to understand the commands it receives from it. It also maps /dev/mouse to the proper device so you can use the /dev/mouse device instead of /dev/tty0 or something similar.
