We’re really excited to chronicle the changes we make in our lives to ‘go green’ and we’re attempting to develop a community around the site so all can benefit from shared knowledge.

Please check the site out and let me know what you think!

(2.6.26 kernel)

Googling around hasn’t turned up much at all…so I figured I’d ask here.  So…here goes:

 

Dear lazyweb, has anyone gotten the Sidewinder x8 or x5 laser mouse to work in Linux and if so, can you point me in the right direction in the comments?
