Unfortunately, _not_ true. I've made multiple attempts from multiple screen sessions, and even after multiple reboots. No luck. moused _is_ loaded on system boot, further there are multiple 'vidcontrol: inappropriate ioctl for device' messages on the console as the last thing before the login prompt is displayed. I've tried sending SIGHUP and/or SIGUSR1 to moused, with no effect on the issue. no '/dev/sysmouse', curses mouse routines still report total failure, and all the rest. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
