Lines: 53 I'm still having problems with XFree86. When ever I run 'startx' or 'xinit' or 'X386 :0' the X server starts up, puts the screen into graphics mode (not clear) and just hangs. Using 'ps -alx' I get the following for the X server: UID PID PPID CPU PRI NI VSZ RSS WCHAN STAT TT TIME COMMAND 0 125 124 0 4 0 1536 516 ttyout S ?? 0:00.48 X :0 hung while trying to write to a tty... So, using my ascii terminal, I ran X through gdb and stopped it with 'kill -9' and found the following stack: ioctl() tcsetattr() x386Io:x386SetSpeed() x386MseProc() EnableDevice() InitAndStartDevices() main() Ok, hung while doing an ioctl() to my mouse via /dev/com1. It's a Logitech mouse, and my Xconfig for my mouse is the following: Logitech "/dev/com1" # BaudRate 9600 # SampleRate 150 # Emulate3Buttons I've trying replacing the com driver with cgd's, but that was no help. Has anyone ever seen this? (or know of a fix :-) BTW, my problems might be due to the com ports that I have in my system. Here is a section of my config file: device com1 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty irq 4 vector comintr device com2 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 vector comintr device com3 at isa? port 0x3e8 tty irq 4 vector comintr device com4 at isa? port 0x2e8 tty irq 3 vector comintr com1 and com2 are on a multi-io board (ide, fd, 2serial, 1parallel, 1game) and com3 and com4 are on a serial io card. Com3 is a 16450, and com4 is a 16550. They are all found and configured correctly at boot time. My mouse is on com1 and my ascii terminal is on com3. Again, any help is greatly appreciated! -- #include <std.disclaimer> #define FULL_NAME "Paul Dokas" #define EMAIL "pbd@runyon.cim.cdc.com" /* Just remember, you *WILL* die someday. */
