- I think you'll find that kermit is changing the baud rate on the
- serial port into which your mouse is plugged in to. kermit does this
- even if you use the command line switch to indicate the proper
- serial port for kermit. I have not investigated whether there
- is a deeper configuration file that can control this.

- Try this, assuming your mouse is attached to ttys1
-
- % stty < /dev/ttys1
- % kermit
- ...
- ^Z
- % stty < /dev/ttys1 # just to see what the story is
- % stty 1200 < /dev/ttys1 # assuming your mouse runs at 1200
