[parisc-linux] X windows on my D350 Server

[Holst, Richard G (Dick), PROSH]

Folks,

When my D server boots and tries to run X, I get an initial gray =
background and the X cursor, followed by a white box in the center of =
the screen, the X cursor turns to an arrow and then the screen goes =
blank. The login prompt then appears on my serial terminal.  The syslog =
file seems to be indicating that the system is having a problem with the =
PS/2 transmit buffer timeout. My /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file is set up as =
follows for the mouse:

__________________________________________
__________________________________________

Section "InputDevices"

# Identifier and driver

	Identifier	"mouse1"
	Driver		"mouse"
	Option	"Protocol"	"PS/2"
	Option	"Device"	"/dev/mouse"

EndSection

Can anyone help me with this problem please?

Hi Dick,

Some ideas:
- Do you really have a PS/2 mouse connected ? If not X will not start.
- Does /dev/mouse really points to /dev/psaux (or something like that) ?

Regards,
Helge
