I follow the directions outlines in the FAQ, but the config MYKERNEL line is confusing... does it mean to actually type config MYKERNEL? because I tried that, and it didn't work. Meanwhile, I can't run X, because I have a PS/2 style mouse (requires kernel recompile) It's a newly installed system, I chose the custom install, and installed all of the sources (except for X) and all but a few of the ports... I'm probably doing something really stupid, but any sugesstions would be appriciated... (This is my first ever experience with UNIX besides the InterNET.) -kkoning
