once again, greetings..
you guys have been great with your help on this issue..and I
really hate the fact that I need help with this -- not sure
why this is not working..=20
I have the following in my /etc/X11/XF86Config:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
Option "Buttons" "7"
FreeBSD reports that Explorer/PS2 is not supported
for this platform -- I have changed the Protocol to
PS/2, Device to /dev/sysmouse but not luck.. =20
I have an optical IntelliMouse on this paticular
machine, and XFree86 has always loved it under
linux.. right now, I am using the ports collection
to download Xfree86 4.01 again to see if there
is any difference (downloaded the 4.x freebsd=20
bin from xfree86 before)..
basically I can't even move the mouse.. if I do it
just jumps all over the place.. when i tried
to use PS/2 as the protocol, I even changed
my moused daemon to PS/2 instead of IntelliMouse
and still the same results.
any idea's? thanks.. =20
