Mouse inactive after install (LM5) solved

[Husse]

I'm surprised it boots at all - that's entirely the wrong line for menu.lst
It should be

Code: Select all

title		Linux Mint, kernel 2.6.24-16-generic
root		(hd0,9)
kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-16-generic root=/dev/sda10 ro quiet splash
initrd		/boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-16-generic

If you need some setting to get resolution pre X this table helps you
Screen 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024 1600x1200
Colors --------------------------- -------------------------------------------
256 | 769 771 773 775 796
32,768 | 784 787 790 793 797
65,536 | 785 788 791 794 798
16.8M | 786 789 792 795 799

so vga=794 might be what you want
