I know this is not the place to ask for XFree86.. Please bear with my question.. I bought a computer to run FreeBSD with X window: I did install the FreeBSD 2.0 & XFree86 3.1.. (My computer is Micron P90 Powerstation plus.. If there is anybody who sucessfully install FreeBSD 2.0 with XFree86 3.1, then please let me know.) After I spend quite a time with lots of help from you, I can make at least x window run... But now my server is not responding to my Microsoft mouse movement at all. I did check LOG file by "% startx >& LOG", my mouse seemed to be correctly probed by X server.. So I did check the README file for X11R6. The author suggests a couple of ways to detect the device for the mouse. Following is my observation; First> I did check that by using " % cat < /dev/tty00", but when the mouse is moved or clicked, it does not generate any output, instead it makes my system frozen... Second> So I did reboot my system, and I did check 2 things; % dmesg | grep sio sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa sio1 .... sio2 ..... sio3 .... % ls -l /dev/tty00 crw-rw-rw 1 root wheel 28, 0 ... At this point, I do not know what is the problem and how to make my mouse active for X server... I will appreciate any help from you.. Thanks.
