I'm in the process of adding a boot option to my machine to be a
stand-alone cpu/auth/file server, but keeping the old 9pcf kernel as
the other option.  That said, I don't know what I changed to cause
this:
    usb/usbmouse: /dev/mousein: '/dev/mousein' file does not exist
which I'm getting all of a sudden.

My initial guess is that somehow adding the user 'bootes' means that
'chesky', even when logged on directly, is not the "host owner" who
can write to #m/mousein, but this could be a load of dingoes' kidneys
and it's not pointing me toward a solution.

You may be right.  When this happened on my terminal, it was
because usbmouse was being run before '#m' was bound into /dev.
