Adding option NoVBE to the LCD's device fixed everything. Though I am kindof wondering why the jogdial device doesn't show a keypress for the Back button, only for the wheel press. But that's another matter. On June 26, 2002, Chip Marshall sent me the following: > Hello. I'm back to trying to get FreeBSD going on my Sony VAIO GR300, > and so far I'm having pretty good luck.
