Would you possibly send me `dmesg' output after you boot the system with `-v' boot option so that I can know the state of the psm0 driver? Do you run `moused'? Or, do you let the X server access the psm0 device directly? Do you think you can reproduce your problem by running moused on psm0, and login from the remote X-terminal and do some heavy work? I prefer you twiddle the PS/2 mouse at the same time if possible. Kazu yokota@freebsd.org
