I've desperatelly trying to configure my kernel to wake up and see my
busmouse (mms0, lms0, pms0), but when using the device /dev/mms0 for example,
I get "not configured" messages.

Kernel compiles and runs OK. Here's the settings in the config-file:

device mms0 at isa? port "IO_BMS1" tty irg 5 vector mmsintr

First I tried "IO_BMS0" but the compiler didn't like it because the 
kernel-headers say "IO_BMS0". MAKEDEV works ok, but when trying to use
the device with XFree:

busmouse /dev/mms0

or

whatevermouse /dev/mms0

...it complaints about the device not being configured. I also tried /dev/mms1.
And I really have actually INSTALLED the kernel in / before trying it. I hope
this is not a FAQ but please help me anyway.
