Date: Wed, 1 May 2002 19:52:16 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2655.55) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have always had this problem on this particular laptop, and days upon days of searching (yet again) still have yielded nothing. I've asked around on here a few times before, but never seem to get any response. I have an NEC Ready 120LT Laptop with an "eraser head" PS/2 Mouse. The mouse works great under Windows 95 (which was on it whem I acquired it), and Red Hat Linux, which I installed right after I got it. I've been running FreeBSD on it for about a year now, and the mouse ALWAYS acts flaky. Sometimes It'll work, most of the time it will not. If I reboot about 15 times, the mouse may work 2 or 3 times, or sometimes not at all. Some Background: Mouse is PS/2 When mouse fails, psm0 does not show up in dmesg Built-In mouse is fully enabled in BIOS No other devices/daemons are using it's IRQ, including pccardd Any ideas? It's freaking me out and I hate rebooting 10 times just so I can get into X and do something on the road. :( TnxInAdv...
