... something I found in XFree86log file: (**) Option "Protocol" "auto" (**) Mouse0: Protocol: "auto" (**) Option "CorePointer" (**) Mouse0: Core Pointer (**) Option "Device" "/dev/psm0" (**) Mouse0: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 50 (==) Mouse0: Buttons: 3 (II) Keyboard "Keyboard0" handled by legacy driver (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse0" (type: MOUSE) (II) Mouse0: SetupAuto: hw.iftype is 3, hw.model is 0 (II) Mouse0: SetupAuto: protocol is SysMouse (WW) fcntl(6, O_ASYNC): Inappropriate ioctl for device ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is this causing the trouble? ----------------------------------------------- Hi freebsd-er, I recently upgraded my m/board and finally get x-window to work again but my mouse is all very jumpy, I seem to lose control over it and very hard to make it stay on one position. I have been trying to see what people have to say on the internet. Something I came across is that the driver for vedio card might affect it. My cedio chip is ProSavageDDR K4M266, I can't run x-win when using original FBSD driver, but after installing a 3-rd party driver, I was able to get it up, and everything looked the way I wanted it! But just this mouse, it went crazy. It's a 2-button ps/2 mouse, I tried "auto" or "ps/2" protocol in X config, nothing changed, I tried to put some moused related stuff in /etc/rc.conf, then I get a nice working mouse in my console, but my x-win won't start up because the mouse device is "busy". Any help! thanks! Eureka! Best regards Tsu-Fan Cheng Department of Pathology SUNY Stony Brook Stony Brook, NY 11794
