I seem to remember seeing that on BSDi, however. The appropriate device seems to be /dev/psm0, which doesn't seem to work at all. I am using XFree3.3.6. Also forgot to mention (unless you check the subject line) that I'm using FreeBSD 4.3-Release. I can live without cut and paste. If I have to.

Interesting. I've tried shift-middle, alt-shift-middle, ctrl-shifto -middle, alt-middle, ctrl-middle, sacrifice a goat-middle...you get the idea. Nothing seems to work. Right now I'd be happy to get it working with an xterm. Thanks for the advice, Tom To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
