The cursor appears on the screen but X doesn't respond to the mouse. I have a bus mouse connected to COM1. I haven't been able to "find" the connection using "cat /dev/mouse" or "cat /dev/cuaa*". I'm sure this is the problem but I don't know where else to find the mouse connection so I can tell the X-configuration where to look for it. Could someone please give me a clue. Thanks, Matto "It's only fun until someone loses an eye - then it's more fun!"
