Re: K4 - documentation



   The documentation assumes /dev/mouse
   /dev/mouse does not exist.
   "MAKEDEV mouse"  fails with  "mouse: Unkown device name"

Thats because MAKEDEV hasn't been hacked to support the creation of
/dev/mouse.

   I am assuming that
   settrans /dev/mouse /hurd/mouse --device=com0 --protocol=microsoft
   settrans /dev/mouse /hurd/mouse --protocol=ps/2
   fail because there is no /dev/mouse (both serial and ps/2 cases)

Those commands will obviously fail if /dev/mouse does not exist, add
--create to the command line of settrans, so:

 settrans -c /dev/mouse /hurd/mouse --protocol=ps/2

or

 settrans -c /dev/mouse /hurd/mouse --protocol=ps/2

should work.
