Re: Strange x11 problem

You need to make a symbolic link from the real mouse device to the /dev/mouse file. If you've got a ps/2 mouse then the real mouse device is /dev/psaux. If you've got a serial mouse then the real mouse device is /dev/ttySx where x is the number of the serial port, 0 for COM1 through 3 for COM4.

Re: Strange x11 problem

As root you could: ln -s /dev/psaux /dev/mouse Alternatively, you could redo xf86config and instead of accepting the default of /dev/mouse put in /dev/psaux. This is assuming you have a ps2 mouse, which you did not specify. Regards, Wm On Sun, Sep 24, 2000 at 07:49:25PM -0700, ObeseWhale wrot
