This is what my /etc/XF86Config file looks like: ----------------- Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" Device "/dev/cuaa0" ---------------- My /dev/cuaa0 entry: ----------------- crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 128 Sep 17 12:48 cuaa0 ----------------- My /etc/rc.conf entry: --------------- moused_enable="NO" moused_type="auto" moused_port="/dev/cuaa0" moused_flags="" --------------- Test your rc.conf settings and bounce your box. moused should not appear on ps. Test your mouse again with /stand/sysinstall. sysinstall fires up your moused while testing, so kill it after you exit sysinstall. Run xf86config again and make sure your mouse points to /dev/cuaa0 This must work, really. Good luck. -Jacques ------------------------------------------------------ The box said "Requires Windows 3.1 or better" ... so I got BSD Network Administrator | Jacques Hugo UNIX Systems | jacques@wired.ctech.ac.za Cape Technikon | +27-21-4603584 ------------------------------------------------------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
