Hello All I'm using a USB mouse on my 4.7-RELEASE box and I'm seeing strange behavior. In short, when I boot the system, I need to immediately 'shutdown now' to single-user mode and then 'exit' back to multiuser mode to get the mouse to work.
When the machine first boots, X will not load as /dev/ums0 is busy. lsof and cat return: # cat /dev/ums0 cat: /dev/ums0: Device busy # lsof | grep ums moused 97 root 3u VCHR 111,0 0t0 40 /dev/ums0 Now, the only moused line I have in /etc/rc.conf is: moused_enable="NO" and yet it's still running after system boot. Somehow bouncing to singleuser mode and then back clears it up. How can I debug this? Where is moused getting started? Note that once I come back to multi-user lsof shows no processes using /dev/ums0 and X starts just fine. Thanks - JB PS: The 'cat /dev/ums0' trick I got from the Internet. When it's working, if you cat the device and move the mouse around you get a lot of gibberish in the terminal, it's a quick device test. # John Bleichert # http://vonbek.dhs.org/latest.jpg To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
