Ver. 4.0 - RELEASE I have a ps/2 mouse attached to my comp and it's being recognised at start up - '/dev/psm0 irq12 ...' but I can't get it to function. I try and 'startx' and it says '/dev/psm0 not configured'. 'cat < /dev/psm0' yeilds the same thing. Just to try something, I put 'di psm0' in the kernel.conf file and didn't get any boot message other then 'config> psm0' , though I was able to get X started but still no mouse functionality. 'cat < /dev/psm0' still yeilds not configured messages. I have not tried to update any of the drivers. I know the mouse is good, and have tried other mice.That machine was a linux box and it worked fine there. Any ideas?
