Does anyone know linux question?

| Hi everyone,
I couldn't find and appropriate linux newsgroup to ask this question, but I'm
sure someone around here will know. Somewhere along the lines my mouse setting
got changed in linux (mandrake 9.1) and as a result I can't do anything, the
mouse is useless, if I try to move it, it opens a hundred programs because it
will only hover over my quiclaunch. Anway, I can get into mandrake control
centre, but I can't navigate my way around, unfortunately kde neglected to allow
tab to move around in there. So, does anyone know how I can fix this? Maybe
through altering a config file form the commandline or something?
Thanks in advance,
Lionel.

Try alt.os.linux.mandrake. I'm sure someone there will be able to
help.

Nothing wrong with the mouse, works in windows, worked previously, stuffing with
them in linux seems to be a no no, the most major flaw in the OS I think.
