It looks like hal is seeing your keyboard, but I don't see it picking up the mouse. You would need to look at lshal to figure out what is going on there. If you are using hal with a non-us keyboard layout you probably want to search the archives for the fdi setup to configure your keyboard layout. robert. > /Chris > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-po...@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" -- Robert Noland <rnol...@freebsd.org> FreeBSD
