Hi, A friend recently bought a Dell Dimension XPSR 400. He's using FreeBSD 2.2.7. FreeBSD doesn't detect his PS/2 mouse. The boot message is: "aux not functioning" with error code 250. He has tried to change some BIOS parameters, but without luck. We've tried to change a couple of KBD_* defines to see it that could help, we had no luck. I should add that Windows 98, NT and Red Hat Linux 5.1 finds his mouse. I've asked on #freebsd@efnet and searched the mailinglists, and saw that there are quite many people that have problems with their PS/2 mice. Their solution was to use a serial mouse instead. His computer have only _one_ serial port, the modem uses that. :-( Can anyone help nailing this bug down? It looks like test_aux_port() returns an error, so maybe one should start there? Of course, we're willing to try patches. Is the situation the same in 3.0-STABLE? Regards, Tommy PS. Please CC both me and Christian DS. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
