Hello,

 	I recently installed FreeBSD in my PC. When I start X (I am running
 XF86), the window manager comes up, couple of windows show up (I could
even change resolution with <ctl><sft><+|->), but the pointer won't move
smoothly (there is hardly any movement at all). I abort X using 
<ctl><sft><bspc>, and see the following messages on console.
The machine works fine with Solaris, so HW is OK.

 	My mouse is connected to serial port 0 (Addr 0x3f8, IRQ 4), /dev/mouse
points to /dev/cuaa0. I have no idea what else to look for.I would very
much
appreciate any TIPS on troubleshoting. Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards,
Prasant
