Note that the device nodes have been renamed with /dev/cuauN and /dev/ttyuN. The sysinstall menu that configures the mouse has not been changed to reflect the new device names created by this change. Maybe the /dev/ttyuN also needs updating somewhere in sysinstall also. >How-To-Repeat: plug in a serial mouse and use sysinstall to post statements in rc.conf. mouse will not work >Fix: make change to sysinstall mouse configure menu >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
