Re: ps2 mouse driver problem -- kernel psmintr error messages
Hi Ed,
You may want to add to your psm driver line (in the kerrnel config
file) the flag 0x8, so the psm line by default is:
device psm0 at atkbdc? irq 12
And you should use:
device psm0 at atkbdc? irq 12 flags 0x8
Then you have to compile the kernel by yourself, plus this doesn't
warranty to fix your problem though :-)
I think there's another way to accomplish this, but I don't know it.
