Thanks for the note, Ryan.
I have indeed tried to uncomment the line for AZxisMapping, though my
note did not make this clear. Again, this did not work.
It is my understanding that if I wish to use the mouse on the console,
that I MUST use moused. Is it not possible to get a useful mouse on the
console and in X11? Certainly it is true that the mouse is more useful
in X11. Still, I do use it on the console, mainly for cutting and
pasting. So I really would like to use both if possible.
Here's the output from dmesg:
% dmesg | grep psm0
psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0
psm0: model MouseMan+, device ID 0
So BSD is finding the mouse on psm0 as it is supposed to, and it is
identifying the mouse model properly.
I will try to troubleshoot by not using moused. Still, there ought to
be a way to do this...
Any other suggestions would be most appreciated.
Frank
