To Whom It May Concern:

I'm sorry to bug you, but I'm looking for help.  Hopefully, you might be 
willing and/or able to direct me to the correct person(s).

I have a technical problem.  I am trying to install and use FreeBSD on my 
i586 Pentium based PC, but I need help figuring out the device name for 
my PS/2 style mouse.  I have it connected to an auxiliary port (this is 
an IBM PC).  I know that in Linux it would be /dev/psaux, but that 
doesn't seem to hold true for FreeBSD as well.

I'm really sorry to bother you.  I know the address "hackers@freebsd.org" 
isn't for technical questions, but I didn't know how to get a hold of 
anybody else.  I am aware that there may or may not be Usenet groups out 
there for such questions, but as I am as new to Usenet and news readers 
as I am to FreeBSD, I wouldn't know how to find them.  I tried asking the 
Tech Support people at Walnut Creek for help, but they haven't had any 
prior experience with a PS/2 style pointing device.

Thank you, and I apologize if I have been a bother.

--Aaron.
