My Config: >device pms0 at isa? port "IO_BMS1" tty irq 5 vector pmsintr IRQ 5 is wrong, as is probably IO_BMS1. The correct I/O addresses are 0x60 (data) and 0x64 (status). These are the keyboard controller addresses; the mouse is connected to the keyboard controller. There was a kernel config file posted in this group that had these lines in it: #bus mice # Microft InPort device mms0 at isa? port "IO_BMS1" tty irq 5 vector mmsintr # Logitech device lms0 at isa? port "IO_BMS1" tty irq 5 vector lmsintr # PS/2 auxiliary port; BROKEN #device pms0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" tty irq 5 vector pmsintr The PS/2 mouse entry is wrong -- no wonder it is labeled "BROKEN"... Minor point: the PS/2 mouse is not a bus mouse (unless you also regard the keyboard as a "bus" device...) The correct mouse keyword in Xconfig is 'PS/2', no matter who made the mouse: all PS/2 mice use the same protocol. >My device: >crw-r--r-- 1 root 37, 0 Oct 28 01:41 pms0 > or >crw-r--r-- 1 root 37, 1 Oct 28 01:41 pms0 Don't know about these, I'm not familiar with NetBSD...
