Re: any chance to bypass BIOS check for VT?

When it says "disabled by bios" it means what it says. There is no

Ok, I tried and proved the point. Kernel crashed.


A ps/2 mouse should be enabled automatically. What makes you think it
is disabled?

It's enabled, but I don't see the mouse. If I cat /proc/mouse, I see
the raw data, but pointer doesn't show up in the screen.

Thanks,
Jeff.
