If you run moused, your mouse will jump around if you use /dev/sysmouse. I don't see how you plan on getting around the rf noise with another com port. Is /var/run/MouseRemote any different than the direct device? Or is the plan to be able to conform other remotes to the same packets this remote sends out? -- ___________________________________________________________________________ Danny Dulai Feet. Pumice.
