In xf86config I have the mouse as device cuaa0 (this I know to be correct). The problem I'm having is that in XFree86, the cursor appears in the lower right area of the screen initially, but as soon as I move the mouse it moves to the far lower-left corner of the screen and will not move from there. It still responds to movements and clicking(a menu will temporarily flash up), but I can't move it out of the corner. Also, the original window the mouse started in still has the focus even though the mouse is not "in" it anymore. Thanks in advance for any help. Matto
