Hi,

I have installed FreeBSD2.0.5 on a Gateway 4DX2-66V, and I am trying to
get XF86311 working.  I have the monitor, video card and keyboard configured
and working, but I can't get the pointer working correctly.  

I have it configured for a Microsoft mouse at 1200 baud.  What I get is
jerky and rapid movement.  When I try a higher baud rate, I get nothing, and
when I tried a couple of other types I get nothing.

I've looked through the docs and didn't find anything and I was wondering if
anyone our there who has set this config up could let me know what they did
to get it working.


Thanks,

Jim Ballantine
