---------- Hmmmm did you try adding the "conflicts" statement to the kernel in the psm0 line? Michael G. ---------- From: Greg Bedrossian[SMTP:greg@gcsl.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 1998 8:42 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: PS2 Mouse Support Greetings, For some time now, I have been unable to implement my X86 GUI environment as a result of not being able to get my PS2 mouse to work. It appears that while in the GUI setup screen you can choose this type of mouse, it is disabled in the kernel config for the reason that it claims to have a conflict with the "IO_KBD" interupt vector 12. Further investigation shows that in fact it is not the IRQ that seems to be the conflicting issue, but thr port address 0x60 that conflicts with the Keyboard port address 0x60. While the config table indicates that this conflict is "allowed" after adding the "psm0" driver to the "Active Drivers" list, when you enter the config screen in X86 GUI mode to configure the mouse, the keyboard freezes. Any ideas anyone? Thank you! kgb
