Hello,    

I was just wondering if I must compile a custom kernel to detect the 
mice mentioned in the following message.
Are they detected with the generic kernel device mse0.  These
mice plug into COM2, right?

Thanks,

JM.

Jeffrey,

I am using various serial mice, some are Mouse Systems compatible and
some are Microsoft compatible.  I never had problems with them using
XFree86.
