Hhmm. This is a data point against my hypothesis (that ps/2 mouse is the culprit). I wonder what else it can be. Keyboard controller? There is not much else hardware involved. wdc0 (wd0+wd1), ed1 (0x300/5/d8000), fdc0, that's all. Well, it's DEC hardware :-) but Compaq isn't less cumbersome, maybe in other ways. > --Chris Christoph P. U.
