Thank you for your replay.
I've tried it, but I can't use a mouse yet.
I selected keyboaed mouse and attached /dev/mouse/kb0 and assosiated tty01.
System return error massage is a "d_open: can't set type if stdin to keyboard,
errno (22)","ev_open: error attaching device" and "usemouse: cannot open event
queue(22)" when running "usemouse -t vi -c .....".

I don't understan why couldn't use a mouse.
Please help.
