Unless you're running a -CURRENT from 3 or so months ago to now, you won't have any mouse pointer in text mode at all. The only mousepointer is in X Windows. (X, of course, must be properly configured to use the mouse, but you don't mention that as being a problem). -- Outnumbered? Maybe. Outspoken? Never! tIM...HOEk
