Hi: This is my current situation: To configure XFree86-4.0.1_10, I use XFree86 -configure and it says: >... >XFree86 detected your mouse at device /dev/mouse. Please check your config if the >mouse is still not operational, as >by default XFree86 tried to autodetect the protocol. > >Your XF86Config file is /root/XF86Config.new > >To test the server, run 'XFree86 -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new' As I remember the mouse is at /dev/sysmouse. I ran /stand/sysinstall, and it hangs at the first page where it says it probes all devices and it takes for a while... After all this, even shutdown -r now doesn't work anymore. It hangs at syncing disks... done Uptime: 11m37s What went wrong? And X recognizes FBSD as 4.2-Beta. Mine is 4.2-stable-20001208. Any help would be grateful. Thanks. -Paul Odhiambo Washington wrote: > * [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [20001211 15:26]: writing on the >subject 'Configuring XFree86?' > =>Hi, All: > => > =>How to configure X Window for the first time?
