I'm not sure why that works, but I started investigating and I think it had something to do with what hald reports as the mouse device. Also moused_enable="NO" in /etc/rc.conf seems to do nothing since devd picks it up. That's probably a bug since quietstart seems to be ignoring the rc.conf entry. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlPOeN4ACgkQrDN5kXnx8yYL1ACglxiRzzIO4B2PPii1PhlKfDWA AbcAnRppTHUsarPKxHS0q8E6/sZdTtdV =FqBP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
