Original messages below,
	The config is XF86Config is correct and moused is not running.  There was
some daemon called adjkernd (Or something like that).  What is it and what
does it do?
	Also, what file to I edit to add more Virtual Terminals?  Is it /etc/ttys?
 Is there a way to have the system "reload" the ttys file without a reboot
to make it recognize the new VTerms?

Thanks again, and any more mouse ideas? :)
