My mouse won't work too *argh* 2. that is why you couldn't login with your user (i presume not root) :) X absolutely need a mouse pointer :( iirc you should have this entry in your XF86config-4 file: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" EndSection Check that /dev/psaux was well created, should look like: # ll /dev/psaux crw------- 1 root root 10, 1 Mar 15 2002 /dev/psaux (if you build your own kernel check that its support is in the kernel) and that gpm is not running (would not disable X to start but well trouble the behaviour of cursor). Hth, Joel PS: can you also mentioned which kernel are you using ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tiscali ADSL: 12 mois à 29,50 €/mois!
