Well it should work under ugen. So as long as that is loaded, which is by defualt, you are cool. The harder part is getting it to play nicely with X. There is of how to map around the KB IO. Custom keymap? There is usbhidaction, but it does not meet the needs for gaming, just remotes and the like. There is usbhidctl, but I am lost on it. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
