I dislike that tapping the mouse produces a mouse click. I had the hardest time getting tapping->mouse click to stop working under Gnome. After much experimentation I discovered a solution: Start moused with the additional flag "-m 11=4". I suspect that the number 11 isn't particularly significant, but I think it has to be a fairly large number. I hope this helps other people as well.

Sorry I missed that Paul. Thanks for calling it to my attention. I have tried to follow the instructions in the ath and wlan manual =20 pages and the UPDATING file but my end result hasn't changed - "no =20 carrier". I'm sure that I am still missing something else.

I haven't used wireless on freebsd since 802.11b on =20 maybe 4.? before hostap, etc. etc. I need to get this running to =20 relearn about wifi under freebsd. Unfortunately, I bought a laptop =20 with an unsupported ath card but now that Sam's latest patch brings it =20 and with the help from folks on the list I'm getting closer. You are right, Andrew, dhclient wasn't running so first I tried: # ifconfig wlan0 up ath0 then associated: ath0: flags=3D8843 metric 0 mtu 2290 =09ether 00:1d:d9:27:5c:e5 =09media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11g =09status: associated lo0: flags=3D8049 metric 0 mtu 16384 =09inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5 =09inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 =09inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 pfsync0: flags=3D0<> metric 0 mtu 1460 =09syncpeer: 224.0.0.240 maxupd: 128 pflog0: flags=3D0<> metric 0 mtu 33160 wlan0: flags=3D8843 metric 0 mtu 150= 0 =09ether 00:1d:d9:27:5c:e5 =09media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (autoselect) =09status: no carrier =09ssid "" channel 4 (2427 Mhz 11g) =09regdomain 101 indoor ecm authmode OPEN privacy OFF txpower 16 bmiss 7 =09scanvalid 60 bgscan bgscanintvl 300 bgscanidle 250 roam:rssi 7 =09roam:rate 5 protmode CTS wme burst bintval 0 but still no carrier on wlan0 :( so I tried # dhclient wlan0 wlan0: no link .............. giving up Trying # ifconfig wlan0 scan never finishes at least for the 10 minutes that I have left it.

For now I will do it manually on boot. The credit goes to: Sam for his patch http://people.freebsd.org/~sam/ath_hal-20080528.tgz Sylwester for giving me another approach. Andrew for reminding me that dhclient wasn't bringing the interface up. Paul for the rtfm, etc. actually the read the NEW ath wlan manuals and =20 UPDATING, that really got me started. Now I have to find how to make the connection far easier than manual =20 and rc.conf and the different authentication. I guess now I would =20 like a nice little window that shows the scan and lets me add the =20 password in X rather than using ifconfig Thanks again, ed Quoting Sylwester : > Edwin L.
