Optical Mice and Linux

[Dr.G]

Ok. So I have a rather pertinent question. Anyone use one of the Microsoft
Optical Mice with thier linux distro? if so, how do you like it. I have a
KVM set up right now but my Optical mouse is usb while the KVM requires PS/2
and i refuse to use  a USB to PS/2 converter if I don't have to, so I am
using two mice, my optical for my Win2K box and my POS intellimouse for my
RH box. However I HATE the RH mouse, its jerky and not smooth at all.
