[...] SC_NO_SYSMOUSE This option removes mouse support in the syscons driver. The mouse daemon moused(8) will fail if this option is defined. This option implies the SC_NO_CUTPASTE option too. " How much memory does this save (or how can I discover that)? Is it worth it on a 96MB PentiumII laptop? Thanks in advance, Ronald. -- Ronald Klop, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
