TwistedLucidityFrom the CLI, can I test if a mouse is connected?12:32
TwistedLucidity(Integration in VBox keeps dying, trying to figure out why)12:32
TwistedLucidityStrange...using xinput I can see that it know where the mouse is; it just can't see the clicks.12:37

daftykinsi remember AST, my dad got one of their laptops for his QS'ing department in the government way back when21:43
zmoylan-piin the 80s they were quite good, then by the 90s the beancounters took over and they got cheaper and cheaper build wise...21:44
daftykinsthis thing needs an SSD and RAM upgrade now before it can be popped back into the hands of whence it came21:44
