My Apologies, I should have been clearer.  I know Scott did all the 
original work on wscons (twice).  I even tested it on my Performa-550 
prior to it being committed.  What prompted my message was that Steve and 
I were both having problems with -current and A3 mice and we'd both 
posted questions on the subject.  The only answers I saw were messages 
from you and ourselves.  Steve dug into the code and found a problem and 
worked up a fix for his system and he sent me the URL to his marchhare 
kernel.  I tried it on my system and it partially corrected the problems 
I was seeing.  That's what prompted the above message.

The only -current kernels I have are the ones Steve Allen (wormey) has 
posted on the server, 23, 24, and 26. They all show the same problem on 
my system; MRG kernels hang while probing the ADB and GENERIC kernels 
panic with a uvm_fault after ams0 probe.  The only kernel I have, other 
than a stock 1.4.2 one, which does work to some extent is Steve Brown's 
marchhare kernel.  It works with an Apple one-button mouse but panics 
with a uvm_fault when the A3 mouse is attached.
