Thanks a lot for this forum ! I just did a small presentation of me and my goals in the presentation section, basically I'm the president of the OCCC (Old Computers and Consoles Club) in Switzerland, and our goal is to preserve and present to the public old computers in a working and fully usable state. Now I'm in the process of building a nice QL setup, and my goal is to have it drivable with a mouse, to let people visiting us play with it.
I muss say that I'm a totally n00b in the QL world, I'm an Amiga guy. Therefore, my questions may look stupid to you, I hope you won't mind

What I have now is a working QL, a Tetroïd Disk Interface, the QL/E for TDI image that i found here :

a CTL to joystick adapter and a SER to DB9 adapter to solder. I have a serial mouse too.
I have now a good working system, thanks a lot to the maker of this distribution, this is awesome !
I can control the pointer with the joystick, but I can't figure out how to make the mouse working.
I tried both DB9 wiring that I found here :

without success.
My question is : do I have to activate something special, load a driver or install anything to make the mouse work ? Is this wiring diagram the good one ? (I found another one that had nothing to do with that somewhere else, it's confusing for me)
Do I forget something in the process?
Here some videos and pictures of what I have now:
