You need some protocol talking back: syscons -> moused It needed in following cases at least: 1) New tty allocated (by getty): syscons tells previously running moused to handle it. [it fix starting from rc bug] 2) Graphics mode entered: syscons tells moused to close mouse device. 3) Graphics mode exited: syscons tells moused to open mouse device.
