Hi, After installing mgetty from the ports collection (related to this I don't know?) my mouse port /dev/cuaa0 died. To continue using my modem I switched it to COM 2 (/dev/cuaa1) and put a PS2 mouse in. OK so far, only I deinstalled mgetty but that didn't bring my COM 1 back. I have tried rebuilding the devices .MAKEDEV cuaa. wolf# ls -la cua* -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 66 Apr 15 20:28 cua00 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 128 Apr 20 01:11 cuaa0 crw-rw---- 1 uucp uucp 28, 129 Apr 20 01:19 cuaa1 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 130 Apr 7 23:01 cuaa2 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 131 Apr 7 23:01 cuaa3 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 138 Apr 20 01:18 cuaaa crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 160 Apr 14 02:43 cuaia0 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 161 Apr 14 14:23 cuaia1 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 162 Apr 7 23:01 cuaia2 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 163 Apr 7 23:01 cuaia3 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 170 Apr 20 01:18 cuaiaa crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 192 Apr 14 02:43 cuala0 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 193 Apr 14 14:23 cuala1 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 194 Apr 7 23:01 cuala2 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 195 Apr 7 23:01 cuala3 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 202 Apr 20 01:18 cualaa a 'ps -a' shows nothing (I can see) using the port.The following is after starting KDE, but the port is dead before this.
