I'm having trouble with a PS/2 mouse on a HP Vectra 486/66N. It works fine on another machine with Linux. IRQ is 12. I recompiled the kernel with the following options which I read in the BSD FAQ, question : options ALLOW_CONFLICT_IOADDR device psm0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" tty irq 12 vector psmintr I left the line for the console unchanged: device sc0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" tty irq 1 vector scintr On bootup, the messages for the two devices are: sc0 at 0x60-0x6f irq 1 on motherboard psm0 at 0x60-0x63 irq 12 on motherboard But if I try to "cat < /dev/psm0" I get the message: cat: stdin: Resource temporarily unavailable :-((( I would be very glad if somebody could help me. Otherwise I won't be able to run X11 and the commandline gets a bit boring now... ;-) Cheerio, Markus
