+++ Adam Flaherty [freebsd] [02-11-03 22:34 +1000]: | Hello, | | I have recently installed FreeBSD 4.8 and am having trouble getting my | PS/2 mouse to work with X11/ Gnome. The mouse works when setting up | moused with /stand/sysinstall and xf86cfg but when gnome loads any | mouse movement translates into the cursor moving to the top right of | the screen. I have tried the various protocols under xf86cfg and | followed the instructions in the FAQ that suggest adding lines to the | config file, and also linking /dev/mouse and /dev/sysmouse. I am at a | loss so any help would be highly appreciated. | | Thanks | | Adam Flaherty I faced the similar problem. this is how i solved it. maybe there can be a better way. # XFree86 -configure /root/XF86Config.new is created. check out the protocol and place it in your XF86Config file. Regards, Shantanoo
