Microsoft Wireless mouse works on PS/2 port, but not USB
Stangest damn thing. It works on the ps2 port using an adapter, but doesn't work (at all) when plugged directly into the USB hub.

If you need a 500 deep recursive make, you need professional care worse. 8=) > >-- >NEVE-RIPE >Ukrainian FreeBSD User Group >http://uafug.org.ua/ -- Alan Eldridge Unix/C(++) IT Pro, 20 yrs, seeking new employment.

Known problem. The USE_ variables should not be set outside the port's own Makefile. I think this is a design flaw, and at least a convention that "private" vars are lowercase or Firstcapped would help. That's as may be, it's still a frog.
