Re: quest for USB only mouse operation
darn {:( no go. here is what i have in there now moused_enable=YES #moused_ums_enable=NO #moused_port=/dev/ums0 #moused_type=auto logged on, i can fix it with these two commands: killall moused moused -p /dev/ums0 or wait.. i can't. i'm confused again: kv_bsd# killall moused kv_bsd# moused -p /dev/ums0 kv_bsd# killall moused kv_bsd# moused -p /dev/psm0 moused: unable to open /dev/psm0: Device busy kv_bsd# killall moused No matching processes were found kv_bsd# moused -p /dev/psm0 moused: unable to open /dev/psm0: Device busy kv_bsd# moused -p /dev/ums0 kv_bsd# On Fri, 28 Dec 2007, Callum Gibson wrote: On 26Dec07 10:38, KAYVEN RIESE wrote: moused_enable=YES moused_port=/dev/ums0 moused_type=auto Have you tried (in /etc/rc.conf): moused_psm_enable=NO moused_ums_enable=YES which should disable moused on the /dev/psm0 port but leave it running on the usb port.

Those are just devices, not moused's. If you ps axw | grep moused you can see the moused processes, one for each device. i understand that, but i was giving this information to beat the dead horse about the fact that psm0 for lack of a better guess is the touchpad, while the information on ums0 matches brandnames printed on my USB mouse (in addition to it being labeled USB) here is an online photo album with 3 pictures showing this information: http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/mousie/index.vhtml in case yer interested {:) BTW, are you testing this at the console rather than in X11?

My replies will be a bit sporadic now - got to have breakfast and get on with the day. Ok, let's determine that there is only one moused running to start with using the ps method above and worry about X later. If you can get it down to one moused at boot you will be half way there. If you find the touchpad still operates after that, then X is going to the psm device direct. oh jeez kv_bsd# ps axw | grep moused 957 ??
