When the machine boots it does seem to see the port: sio0: type 16550A sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa However trying to access /dev/mouse results in: $ cat < /dev/mouse /dev/mouse: Device not configured Same kind of result if I try to start up X11. I'm pretty new to BSD4.4 so I may have skipped a configuration step, but I sure haven't seen anything documented (so far).
