Re: Booting 9front on bhyve
Is it possible to use other mouse drivers, ps2intellimouse etc.?

Booting 9front on bhyve
Hi, I want to install 9front in bhyve. The only information I've found about 9front on bhyve is here: https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=9f...@9fans.net&q=subject:%22Re%5C%3A+%5C%5B9fans%5C%5D+Plan+9+image+for+xhyve%5C%2Fbhyve+hypervisor%5C%2Fvm%5C%3F%22&o=newest&f=1 That's what I actually do - I boot 9front with UEFI enabled. The problem is that when booting with UEFI mode, 9front hangs on https://anongoth.pl/2016-12-14-191343_1920x1080_scrot.png When I enable CSM, I get further, but when I move my mouse, it only randomly moves in the VM (I set up ps2 type). Any idea on this? The OS is FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
