Hi, I have the same message as this post to the newsgroup a while ago. Didn't seem to be a followup to the Xserver error. I just installed 2.2rev0 to an Alpha PC164LX.

XF86 setup seemed to go fine with no errors on the errror console. Is this error just because there is no mouse device? Or are there two errors here? Actually I just blew away a RedHat 6.0 to upgrade to Debian :-) Mike -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Lake Active caver, Linux enthusiast and interested in anything technical.
