Thanks for the info. I downloaded and installed the XSuSE_Elsa_GLoria X server and it seems to be working except for one problem. I sent a message to the folks at suse.com, but they won't support this server under FreeBSD. After I start the server, using 'startx', the first keystroke or moving the mouse causes the mouse pointer to move to the upper left corner of the screen and "stick" there. Although I cannot move the mouse pointer, I can interact via keyboard with the active XTerm window. I have tried all variations on mouse/keyboard options when configuring the server and it doesn't make a difference. The system configuration is as follows: Dell XPS R400 (400MHz Pentium II) 128MB RAM Diamond Fire GL 1000 Pro video with 8MB SGRAM Microsoft IntelliMouse Any assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
