I have moused configured (in rc.conf) and the mouse is initially visible upon boot, but startx fails with "Cannot open mouse" until I restart it using sysinstall ... I'm sure there must be a shorter way to start it, but issuing moused from the command line doesn't work. Is there a sure-fire way to make the mouse available without using sysinstall? thanks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
