Optical Mouse not working

When i loaded 7.04 my optical mouse does not work. No even a light shows on the mouse. Is there a solution to fixing the mouse problem? Should various mouse setups not come standard with Ubuntu?

I got my free 7.04 cd in the mail saturday, and I bought a $30 'puter from goodwill. i got the net up on this using linux. I am still learning and installing stuff. Much cheaper than an MS machine with Vista.

Thanks Ubuntu!

Is there an equipment list for Ubuntux? Or is it pretty much standard?
