aux/mouse -dC $mouseport

usually does the trick.  many three button mice
do not respond to aux/mouse's guessing protocol, but you can tell it what to
use as the default.  on starting the demonstration system,
answer `n' when the system asks if you want
to enter the window system.  once you type the aux/mouse command above,
you should be able to move the mouse.  you can then enter
the window system and enjoy yourself.  (while you're there,
you can change /rc/bin/termrc to add the -dC option to the aux/mouse
commands there.)  of course, if you still can't move the mouse,
you'll need to try another default.

-d isn't documented in the manual page, but that fact is
documented somewhere (i can't find it now).  perhaps it was in
the Errata.
