Instead of their win98 .. So I rode lots of docs about freebsd (specialy handbook, faq, beginners), downloaded iso images of the 5.1release and started the install from cd. Everythings were almost nice the first time (with learning, reading, understanding behind) so far I tried to add wheel mouse to my configuration. It was a bad idea because the next time I started freebsd my rc.conf had a bad character (eof instead of backquote or whatever) on the 1456 th line (of a 1455 lines file). ?? 1455 lines - just curios - what did you put in there ? my desktop: it# wc -l /etc/rc.conf 21 /etc/rc.conf my router: buh# wc -l /etc/rc.conf 32 /etc/rc.conf Maybee because I made change with abiword ... Before that time I had been able to set up a good configuration for my ps2 mouse and it worked fine inside kde and even in console mode. Unable to make a new rc.conf from the bad one I made a new install of freebsd but probably not the good one as my kde taskbar don't have anymore direct to shell button. (I will have a look at that later). Alt+F2 -- konsole -- OK The main trouble I have now is to stop stupid behavior of my mouse : as soon I move it too fast or move a couple pixels to left it refuges itself on left edge of the screen. Tried to control that from kde but did not get any amelioration. Kde mouse is set to sysmouse so I would like to get a correct mouse behavior from sysinstall test mouse dialog. The best thing I can get now is with Microsoft IntelliMouse but pointer still go as quick as possible to left side of the screen, whichever protocol I use. I tried many ways to come back the first time I setted, tried to remember the good words to ask google but at least get exausted : how to configure freebsd mouse focus (to the macos one) in console mode ? auto give me the worse : each move of the mouse act as accept (or refuse ?) sysinstall dialog Is the mouse cursor moving Please send the output of: it# dmesg | grep ps2 or it# cat /var/run/dmesg.boot | grep psm man moused will give you some hints.

PS2 Mouse Problems And ACPI?? Are They Related?
hi OS: 5.1R Mouse: Logitech optical wireless (the one with the rechargeable base station and like 7 buttons) *(This Mouse Is a usb mouse but i have a usb2ps2 connector that i have.)* After my install finished (gone well and returned no errors, but i did not set up the mouse yet). So i am going to try to configure the ps2 mouse port. device /dev/psm0 port auto flags -z 4 After this i usually reboot the machine,(need to learn how to stop and start the moused from the command line ). Now weather i set the mouse up this way or using /stand/sysinstall, i get the same effect. If i move the mouse around in console mode i notice that it disappears while i am moving it and then reappears in its new position when i stop moving it. So when i startx i cannot follow where my mouse is at because of the blinking problem. This really [EMAIL PROTECTED] Now i notice if i disable acpi at startup the mouse works correctly in the console mode, but i loose the ability to use my usb ports(figures), and when i try to startx with acpi disabled my mouse is stuck in the top right corner jumping around. Finally I try to use the mouse in the usb port, so i configure the mouse such as (rc.conf) usb_enable=YES moused_port=/dev/ums0 //This Number Came From dmesg. moused_type=auto moused_enable=YES after a reboot i can c my mouse in console mode and it moves around, but an error occured during init of the rc.config file that reads something like cant open /dev/ums0, device busy. X will not run returns with an error something like no core pointer available. So I have no mouse available in new 5.x series. I have no idea how to fix this, any advice would help out thanx. bj _ Enjoy MSN 8 patented spam control and more with MSN 8 Dial-up Internet Service.

Problems with ACPI And My PS2 Mouse!!
hey, I recently installed 5.1R and after boot up, with acpi enabled, my mouse begins to work incorrectly. when i move the mouse it disappears and reappears elsewhere when i stop.. Whats Wrong??? When i disable acpi from boot up the problems goes away?? But i cant disable this because i need to make use of my usb ports?? I have a Soyo KT333 dragon lite motherboard if that helps. i guess from what i hear that the problem might be with the board( I hope not because it cost a lot of money ;-)) . Could someone shed some light on this problem for me.
