I first copied the /usr/X11R6 to /usr/X11R6-R3. I then used the ports and installed XFree86-4. The install replaced a lot of the files in /usr/X11R6 so I was glad I made a copy of the tree. I also installed the X11 wrapper. I then used xf86config which set up a /etc/X11/XF86Config file (R3 seems to use /etc/XF86Config). When I "startx" my desktop (wmaker) appears but I have no mouse. I checked and re-checked and my settings are correct. I tried /dev/mouse and /dev/sysmouse both w/o success. I renamed my new /usr/X11R6 to /usr/X11R6-R4 and set a symb link of /usr/X11R6 to /usr/X11R6-R3 and did a "startx" XFree86-3... started right up and I did have my mouse back. Any thoughts on why XFree86-4 doesn't run my mouse? Standard PS/2 3 button mouse. -=[cwa]=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
