Does anybody know how to get X386 to work with a microsoft mouse
connected to a PS/2 style mouse port? I'm runing 386bsd on
a Toshiba 4400sx notebook computer, and I can get X386mono to work
with the mouse connected to the com1 serial line. However, I want
to connect the mouse to the PS/2 style mouse port so I can use
/dev/com1 as a modem line. I've tried specifying "/dev/com2" as my
mouse device, that doesn't work. -wade (wade@sunrise.stanford.edu)
