The other way, is to edit your XF86Config to point to /dev/pcm0 (if you are using a PS2 mouse), or /dev/sioN (N being the COM port number), which gives XFree86 direct access to your mouse. But remember, if you do this, you will need to disable the moused from Sysinstall. > >When I start XFree86 I get the error that /dev/mouse can't be found, OK > >devfs seems to be installd so MAKEDEV dosn't exist anymore, is there > >anyway to get /dev/mouse working as in FreeBSD 4? Technically the MAKEDEV script still exists in src/etc/MAKEDEV*, but it is only copied to /dev if you have disabled the DEVFS k-option, afaik. -- Hiten Pandya -- __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
