Hi Jesse, My last email to you bounced after 5 days - apologies.

The first error message says: "Cannot open /dev/mouse: no such file or directory" After you changed the file, you still have: Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" So this is probably the cause of the error continuing. A quick ls of /dev/mou* should tell you if you do or do not have this device. Eg: "ls /dev/mou*" On my machine, I use a PS/2 mouse with the device set to /dev/psaux. So you could try "ls /dev/ps*". If you have this, then give that a try. Eg in your XFree86.new file change: > > Section "InputDevice" > > Identifier "Mouse0" > > Driver "mouse" > > Option "Protocol" "PS/2" > > Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" > > Option "SampleRate" "80" to: > > Section "InputDevice" > > Identifier "Mouse0" > > Driver "mouse" > > Option "Protocol" "PS/2" > > Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" > > Option "SampleRate" "80" > > What do I need to change and where does it go in the XFConfig file? > > Thanks in adv for your help!! > JEsse > I will post later this week about testing your Xorg server to see if that does a better job for you.
