Exactly, same here (on 8.2), only 10 times for me.. Each time, before
I can make the changes for a mouse, it asks me to redo my entire
screen / monitor, etc.. It will not even read my AOC Spectrum, which
is LISTED in their files.. I have to use VESA.. I had a 20" monitor,
spent hours trying to config.. It died, went back to my AOC, and the
nightmare began again..

It has for me too. I just find RH's Kudzo to be more polished,
especially for add-ons / changes, after you have installed the OS..
