Thanks for this. Unfortunately, connecting a standard ps/2 mouse (which requires 5V) isn't really an option on the BTest boards (upon which the ps/2 ports run at 3.3V). Just out of curiousity, I booted into OFW and did a "select /mouse". It hung (no "ok" prompt, no further input accepted). I had the old revision of the touchpad hooked up to the ps/2 port on the BTest board. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.laptop.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
