I do think that ps2 mouses aren't always hot-pluggable, but I'm uncertain. xorg 6.9 and moused -z 4 don't seem to play nicely, I had to take the -z 4 flag out for scroll wheel to work again. I also discovered that some cheap KVMs (belkin omni cube) throw up a lot of random noise when you switch ports, and mouses can do odd and not fun things when you reconnect (up to and inclusing freezing X and panicking the system). If yours isn't related to that maybe it's just your momma board not likin' the hot swappin' and is tryin' to tell you to quit it. -- -- _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
