Re: Of Mice and Modems



The modem should be /dev/ttyS0 or /dev/ttyS1 like others.  It tripped
me up for a bit that you have to use macserial.o instead of serial.o
to drive it.  Incidentally, I can't make it work with efax yet.
Anybody have any tips?  (This is a tibook g4 box)

I've tried a few guesses, but with no evidence of success.  Also, startx is failing, saying "cannot open mouse (no such file or directory)".  The mouse in question is an Apple USB optical mouse.  My question is:  Is the  system looking in all the wrong places for things or have I just given it more wrong answers than it can tolerate?  Any advice, hints, etc. would be most appreciated.
