I've already received some excellent suggestions to try but unfortunately none of them have resolved the problems I'm seeing. I must have something setup wrong with the mouse due to the X error I'm receiveing, but I'm out of ideas at this point. 1.) Can not boot custom kernel. No matter what I try, I can ONLY boot the generic kernel as shipped, or the GENERIC kernel with the XSERVER option and psm0 device built in it. I have tried starting with GENERIC and adding in the things I *think* I need, and I've tried starting with LINT and removing the things I *don't* think I need. In both cases, the kernel builds without errors, but the system hangs immediately after echoing the text and data information. 2.) X will not run under the GENERIC kernel I am no longer getting system panics, however I do receive the following error: Fatal Server Error Cannot open mouse xinit: no such file or directory (errno 2): unexpected signal 13 I have /dev/psm0 /dev/mse0 and /dev/mouse built in /dev.
