Bug#333246: during configuration of XFree86 for VMwareTools '(EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/input/mice' occured
Hi, About a year ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding mouse opening problem while configuring XFree86 for VMware. Did you reproduce this problem recently? If not, I will close this bug in the next weeks. Thanks, Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Martin, after I installed the kernel-header-files I could find something of mousedev and psmous. But I don't know if I really load them. And if not, how to load them. In fact I receive some error during booting because of something might be wrong with 'mice'. On /dev/input I can se a mice-entry. But it seems not to be a file nor a directory. The first character (on a ls -l) shows me a c. What does this mean? Yes, you are right: I'm trying to run debian (and XFree86) inside VMwar 5.
