Hi Theo.
Regarding your installation problem I cannot help you :-(

You have to make some symbolic links. su to root and execute
ln -s /dev/qms0 /dev/mouse
ln -s /dev/vidcvideo0 /dev/vidc
You also have to execute the following as root (to allow other users to
use X):
cd /usr/X11R6.3/bin
chown root.wheel Xarm-33
chmod a+sx Xarm-33
That works for me (allthough it may not be the right way to do it :-)
Best regards
Ib-Michael
