I have a couple of new 486/66 PCI machines with Adaptec 2940 SCSI and
Diamond Stealth 64 graphics.  Installing FreeBSD 2.0.5 was fairly
straightforward but can not get Microsoft serial mouse to work.

Have tried cat </dev/ttyd0 amongst other things but no go.  Am I
missing something here ?  I have seen parts of responses to similar
questions but not enough to give me a hint here.

Any ideas please ?
