Thanks for the suggestion.
But also so I don't get anything. I have tried with afterstep but after a
first screen grey, where I should find a cross that points out the mouse, I
get one screen blue and a green but not vieve visualized nothing. I say this
because I have installed the mulinux on an old 386,8MB of RAM, serial mouse:
here Xwindow runs, and the mouse is seen on screen grey.
After having pressed control-halt-backspace I have read the lines of log
that it results to be this:

Idem for wm2.
I don't succeed in understanding if it is due to the configuration.
The mouse works well and it is recognized in how much if I launch the demon
gpm it is seen
the cursor of the mouse to move.The configuration of Xwindows is the
