I normally run X11 (via xdm) on my laptop. Today, running FreeBSD 7.3-PRERELEASE as of r203700, the mouse stopped moving.
Logging in from a pty & checking the last bit of /var/log/messages showed: Feb 9 14:30:27 localhost kernel: kbdc: TEST_AUX_PORT status:0000 Feb 9 14:30:27 localhost kernel: kbdc: RESET_AUX return code:00fa Feb 9 14:30:27 localhost kernel: kbdc: RESET_AUX status:ffffffff Feb 9 14:30:27 localhost kernel: kbdc: DIAGNOSE status:0055 Feb 9 14:30:27 localhost kernel: kbdc: TEST_KBD_PORT status:0000 Feb 9 14:30:27 localhost kernel: psm0: failed to reset the aux device.

Help? Thanks! Peace, david -- David H. Wolfskill da...@catwhisker.org Depriving a girl or boy of an opportunity for education is evil.
