Hi,
I have installed BSD on my PC and am trying to configure X for
my hardware. After the configuration, I tried running the
shell script "/usr/X11R6/bin/startx", which calls xinit.
I am able to bring up the X windows, but my mouse does not
work on my system. I have run xf86config utility .
Here is what dmesg shows:
ROOT:/root # dmesg | grep mse
mse0 not found at 0x23c
ROOT:/root # dmesg | grep psm
ROOT:/root #
I rebuilt the kernel (as per the instructions) with psm0 enabled
and after booting the machine, I cannot run any X-based application at
all.
ROOT:/root # startx
Bus error - core dumped
ROOT:/root # xterm
Bus error
I restored the original kernel and to my surprise, I still
get the same error.
1) How do I make my mouse to be recognized?
2) What should I do to atleast make the X-windows based applications
work with the old kernel?
Thanks in advance.

Mahesh
