There are moused lines in /etc/rc.conf, and the mouse is working well. The question I wanted to ask is: why does the mouse start working BEFORE moused is started? Hypothesis after reading "man syscons": The syscons driver displays the mouse pointer. moused is only responsible for handling copy-and-paste. That would explain why I see the mouse pointer (and can move it) before moused is started.

I have moused_enable=YES in /etc/rc.conf (and moused_flags="-z 4", but no other mouse-related settings afaict). My question was: why does the mouse pointer appear and work BEFORE moused is started? (At least before "Starting moused" appears on the console.) Hm. Is there a time lag between moused starting and the output appearing on the console? That would be highly unlikely I think, but who knows... Another thing to try would be to turn moused off, to see if the mouse still works. Later...

RE: Two programs trying to handle the mouse?
Mouse is started from /etc/rc.conf Sounds like you did not config your mouse during the sysinstall when you installed FBSD from CD. You can execute /stand/sysinstall again, pick post install config, and then config your mouse. It will rebuilt the moused statements in rc.conf for you. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Kai Grossjohann Sent: Thursday, December 18, 2003 12:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Two programs trying to handle the mouse?
