Hi guys!

I've just got myself a new mouse, a ps/2 mouse, however, I can't make it
work :-(
I'm interested in making it work in XFree-4.0, and I don't care about
mouse in the console. According to the FreeBSD-faq, I should use
Option "Device" "/dev/psm0"
in the XF86Config, however, when trying to start X with this line in the
config file, I am told:
xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/psm0
Device not configured.

Any ideas on how to configure this thing? What does it generally mean that
a device is not configured?

In the kernel I have inserted:
device psm0 at atkbdc? irq 12

TIA
Jan
