Subject:   using a serial mouse?
Message-ID:   <9504161253.aa07440@kate.ibmpcug.co.uk>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
can a serial mouse be used with FreeBSD for XFree86?

I see /dev/ttyd0 and ttyd1 but the mouse, when attached to
com0 seems to generate nothing.

I need a mouse to start the server, linking /dev/mouse to /dev/ttyd[01]
gets it started but I can't move the cursor.

the docs with XFree86 say do :  sh MAKEDEV tty00

that doesn't seem to make tty00
