I have a PS/2 mouse.  During the install it said a new kernel is required for it to work.  I installed FreeBSD 
2.1.  Where can I get documentation on how to re-compile the kernel, or can you tell me how to do it so that my 
PS/2 mouse will work.  Do I need to install the source code in order to re-compile the kernel, and if so, what 
sources are required.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
