hi 

I am running 2.2.1R and I am trying to get my mouse working in X.
I've done this in a couple of older releases as well as in Linux
and its always been a trivial exercise, but now  just cannot get 
it to work.

I have I three-buttin Genius mouse (without a protocol selection
switch) on cuaa0. Using : 

moused -t microsoft - p /dev/cuaa0 
vidcontrol -m on 

I can get it working perfectly on the console, but with the same 
settings, there is no response in X. I've tried various other 
settings, as well as another mouse with a protocol selection
switch to no avail. I've also used XF86Setup as well as
xf86config. Disabling moused doesn't help, although starting
the Xserver does disable moused in some way.

What am I missing??
