I have installed v3.3 on an intel pentium desktop and everything works fine. However when I try to get a ppp connection through the K desktops Kppp app theres a conflict between the modem and the mouse. The mouse dies when the modem is queried or tries to dial and no dial up connection works. Under W98 (its a dual boot machine) the modem appears on COM3. When I configure the FBSD kernel during installation ports 3 & 4 show as not found in the bitmap of probed ports. Kppp says the modem is on port 1 which is also used by the modem.I'm sure I can edit a confg file somewhere and solve the problem buit I cant find the advice I need in the FBSD handbook or the other books and manuals I've got. Any advice or suggestions gratefully recieved. Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
