Don't know the > difference though. /dev/sysmouse is a shareable virtual mouse controlled by moused, and always looks like a Mouse Systems mouse, no matter what kind of a mouse you really have on the system (ps/2, serial, usb, etc). See the sysmouse, moused, and mouse manpages for more info. If you use the console a lot, it's better to leave moused in control. If you never use the console, you can probably just use /dev/psm0. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
