Berkeley Lines: 16 Message-ID: <01bc4edc$dd9f2f60$e3c42299@beta> NNTP-Posting-Host: cust99.max30.san-francisco2.ca.ms.uu.net X-Newsreader: Microsoft Internet News 4.70.1161 Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:39492 I am using FreeBSD v 2.1.6, and I have the following problems: 1. Every time I tried to start X right after booting up FreeBSD, my mouse does not move. However, after I press ctrl-alt-backspace to quit X and startx again, everything seems to work fine. 2. I am using Netscape 4.0b3 for FreeBSD. But Netscape doesn't seem to be able to read in any newsgroup names when I tried to browse through the list of newsgroups. I've tried to telnet <news server> 119, and the news server responds fine. And I can read news using Netscape 4.0b3 in Windows with no problem. Please help! Thanks in advance. -Ming
