Hi!

I am on HP Vectra 486DX/33 wanting to run XFree86-2.1.
HP's Manual says mouse is Logitech at IRQ 12, that's all.
DOS "si" say nothing but a software interrupt #33 Microsoft Mouse Driver at 0019:40D2.
What about the port address of the mouse? (0x23c is wrong.)

From Steve Alvey (steve@galadriel.bt.co.uk) recent posting about Thomas Hildmann's
Alphabook, I tried naively:
...
options ALLOW_CONFLICT_IOADDR
...
device          mse0    at isa? port "IO_KBD"   tty irq 12 vector mseintr
...

[with in Xconfig;]
...
busmouse	"/dev/mse0"
...

The machine reboots upon "startx' after loging the X config.
Help!

Thank you a lot
