How do I do that? Well, you need to find the connector for the other serial port, and then modify your configuration files to point to it. In /etc/XF86config you look for the line which looks like: Section "Pointer" Protocol "MouseMan" Device "/dev/ttyd0" Change this last line to: Device "/dev/ttyd1" For moused, look for this line in /etc/rc.conf: mousedport="/dev/cuaa0" # Set to your mouse port (required if mousetype set)" Change it to mousedport="/dev/cuaa1" # Set to your mouse port (required if mousetype set)" Greg -- See complete headers for address and phone numbers finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
