Not sure if this situation even shares any code with x86, but if you're getting mouse function in a VT but not X11: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=251149 Another possibility is software cursor, which I usually use to dodge regressions that occasionally come with xorg updates. FreeBSD coral.acadix bacon ~ 1003: more /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-swcursor.conf Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" Option "SWCursor" "on" EndSection I'd be interested in some feedback on sysutils/desktop-installer on the g4. I've tested it on an iMac G5 and a PowerMac G5.
