I managed to get my wheel working in xorg, but this required disabling it for the console. This is a sub-optimal solution, but it works for me because I don't often want to use the mouse in the console---sometimes I would like to but I didn't want to fight with it anymore. Here is what I did: comment out moused stuff in /etc/rc.conf: #moused_enable="YES" #moused_port="/dev/psm0" #moused_type="intellimouse" and in /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psm0" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" I think you are trying to get a USB mouse working (am I remembering that correctly?) In any case I am using a ps/2 mouse, I don't know if that makes a difference for the "Option "Device" "/dev/psm0"" line. As I mentioned before this will make the mouse non-functional in the console (still works in xterm thought). Conan
