Joanie no baka: bad mouse type in Red Hat

So I got grumpy that the mouse I was using wasn't set up to use the scroll wheel, and tried to change it.

This, of course, made things so that the mouse was hovering at the upper right-hand corner of the screen, and occasionally responding to user input by scuttling along the top, and then back to the corner again, and popping up the right-click menu.

Fortunately, I was able to Google, and found someone on a mailing list who'd had the same trouble, who was likewise looking for a FAQ on how to navigate the GUI with keys in order to fix it.

Alt + F1 is my *friend*, my very very good friend.
