That will be a challenge. Without the touchpad I have to see how to copy the output.
Sorry for the formatting. I used the Dell.

OK one more thing to try.
Run "xrandr" and note the default resolution.

Do you have a visible mouse pointer now?

Is the mouse pointer visible now?
If this doesn't work I'm out of ideas. That machine would probably make a nice music server...

The screen resolution makes no change.
And yes, the mouse or touchpad is recognized.

Re: Dell Mini recommendations
Tried also a USB mouse, same behavior. And that is the strange thing. The cursor is there but it is like fading.
Ratpoison would be a good candidate for that machine. :)
