I looked in the XF86Config file, and : changed the Device and Protocol to "PS/2" and "/dev/psm0", but when the : system boots, it does not look for any psm0 device. When I boot with : the "-c" (configure) and try to "enable psm0", it tells me that psm0 : does not exist. I heard something about having to "reconfigure the : kernel". What's that? How do I do it? Will anybody get hurt? : Thanks for all the help... : Daniel I have similar problem with ps/2 . I recompiled the kernel and delete word "disable" in device psm0 as FAQ suggested. No luck with ps/2 , When I boot I got message "ps/2 not found at address .. " . If you got anything working, please inform me. Henry Lu honglu@rt66.com
