Somebody help me!) From memory, there are two mouse drivers for FreeBSD - one for the console, and the other used by X.

If so, try killing the console mouse driver (called moused, I think...) HTH Dan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
