I just tried to send this on to the original sender, and failed, so I've sent it to the list in case it's useful: To: vernon@eds.com.bta.net I just switched from a serial mouse to a PS/2 mouse. This is copied pretty much from my sysadmin book of power. - Rebuild kernel with options ALLOW_CONFLICT_IOADDR device psm0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" tty irq 12 vector psmintr - Reboot with new kernel - Make mouse device # cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV psm0 - Alter X config file (/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config) and set the following in the mouse section Protocol "PS/2" Device "/dev/psm0" That was all I had to do, and it works like a charm. Hope it helps, N =-[Opinion, n: See the above text for an example]=-=[Kibo #: e]-[RYRYRY]=-= =-[The Silly Sod Society: To perfect and to swerve]=-[beable]-=[TP U BG]=-= The new Congressmen say they're going to turn the government around. I hope I don't get run over again.
