Hi all,

It seems that some time this afternoon my mouse decided to go no vacation 
without me.  My box has been up for (only) 30 days, and in that time, I've 
used X successfully dozens of times - including last night and this morning.

This afternoon when I tried to start X up, I get the error Cannot open 
mouse (Device not configured).  The only information I could find in the 
archives was regarding users who never even had the mouse working to 
start.  The problem is that this mouse WAS working just 10 hours ago - and 
now it's not.

I've checked the cabling, and all seems well.  Any ideas short of rebooting?

The mouse is a Logitech Trackman Marble (ps/2) running into an OmniCube 
4-port KVM, and then into the FreeBSD (3.4-Stable) box.  This configuration 
has given me no other troubles for the past 8 months that it's been running 
like this.

Thanks in advance,
John
