I have a mouse on /dev/mse0, and the port is recognized when the system scans for I/O controllers at boot time. However, a bit further on, I get the message: rc.i386 configuring syscons: moused moused: Warning: unable to get status of mouse fd: Operation not supported by device I am running FreeBSD 2.2.2 from the Walnet Creek CD ROM. The mouse is a microsoft serial mouse type. It works corretly under Win95 on the same machine. I have set the type to microsoft and the device to /dev/mse0 in rc.conf. Also, I have installed X-windows from the same CD ROM. It configured properly under the X configuration menu from sysinstall. I had to use the keyboard to do the configuration since, obviously, the mouse wasn't functional. Once I get the mouse functional, how do I start X-windows? None of the X-windows from shell startup files mentioned in the X-windows man pages seems to be present. Thanks for your time, Paul Missman
