I can't seem to find the one it's using, here are the results of a seach I did. I had one file in my home directory from another machine but that file is not named valid for use, here is the seach results. liam# find / -name "xorg.c*" /usr/X11R6/man/man5/xorg.conf.5.gz /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/xorg.cf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/getconfig/xorg.cfg /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf.eg /usr/home/wiliweld/xorg.conf.new > > # Identifier and driver > > Identifier "Mouse1" > Driver "mouse" > Option "Protocol" "Auto" > Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" > > 8) There have been other posts about xorg.conf problems > recently.

The mouse I'm using works fine in another 32bit 5.4 machine and here is the seach path results: [root@bsd ~]-> find / -name "xorg.c*" -print /usr/X11R6/man/man5/xorg.conf.5.gz /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/xorg.cf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/getconfig/xorg.cfg /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xorg.conf.eg /root/xorg.conf.new And inside the last file there is the mouse settings of: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" EndSection I'll keep hacking Denny, thanks > > Denny White > > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (FreeBSD) > > iD8DBQFCvPvsy0Ty5RZE55oRAqXuAJ9AlZQPVix4Wlbyznuo27/Vt/JPOgCgmlsP > Zc0l1pdCB1IOwexObMWmSbE= > =yUMc > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > ____________________________________________________ Yahoo!
