Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just got my boss moved over to FreeBSD from Windows, and we're having a terrible time with X and mice ... She has a PII system, and we've tried both a Logitech Mouseman and MicroSoft Inteellimouse...we have her box hooked up through a console switch, since, for now, she needs to shre her mouse/monitor/keyboard with her old Microsoft machine... If I reboot the machine and bring up X, no problems...if I switch to Microsfot and back again, it starts to generate: psmintr: out of sync (#### != ####) error messages ... I did a quick search through the archives, and found: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=293190+294613+/usr/local/www/db/text/1999/freebsd-questions/19990704.freebsd-questions But there doesn't appear to have been any resolution to the problem, or at least none posted publicly... The kernel is 3.3-STABLE as of yesterday, with a full 'make world' done...with the following defining the PSM device: # atkbdc0 controlls both the keyboard and the PS/2 mouse controller atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD tty device atkbd0 at isa? tty irq 1 device psm0 at isa? tty irq 12 I've used FreeBSD/X with a switch before, but with older kernels, and have never seen this... Solutions much appreciated...even suggestions? :) Thanks... Marc G.
