I have FreeBSD 4.3 release running, and I JUST got KDE and
XFree86 4.03 working.

My problem is that I can't seem to find the right
configuration for my mouse. Whenever I start X, my mouse
goes haywire. It continuely tries to move to the top of the
screen and stays there, and it is constantly sending a
"click" signal to FreeBSD.

I have a Logitech MouseMan Wheel PS/2 mouse. Is there a
specific set of commands I need to send to moused? My
XF86Config section for the mouse looks like this:

#
**********************************************************************
# Core Pointer's InputDevice section
#
**********************************************************************

Section "InputDevice"

# Identifier and driver

    Identifier	"Mouse1"
    Driver	"mouse"
    Option "Protocol"    "MouseMan"
    Option "Device"      "/dev/psm0"

# When using XQUEUE, comment out the above two lines, and
uncomment
# the following line.

#    Option "Protocol"	"Xqueue"

# Baudrate and SampleRate are only for some Logitech mice.
In
# almost every case these lines should be omitted.

#    Option "BaudRate"	"9600"
#    Option "SampleRate"	"150"

# Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button Microsoft mice
# Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds (default
is 50ms)

#    Option "Emulate3Buttons"
#    Option "Emulate3Timeout"    "50"

# ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice

    Option "ChordMiddle"

EndSection
