Following up to my previous post about a kernel with HWDIRECT hanging if 
I move the mouse during the boot...

In pr#2568, Jason Thorpe suggests a few changes (to locore.s and 
machdep.c) that could fix this.

I've compiled a kernel with those changes but maybe it was more a 
"pointing to the right direction" than a fix. Or maybe things have 
changed a bit too much since then. The resulting kernel hangs 
just before the Copyright message (after displaying PB/IIvx video blah 
blah).

I dont know anywhere near enough about NetBSD internals to debug this 
myself. Anybody have an idea? Jason?

This pr is low priority and has been opened since 1.2_ALPHA (June 96).

Regards,
Ben
