FreeBSD is the only OS that requires me to pass flags to psm to get my mouse to behave properly on my KVM switch, and the flag I use (0x200) forces "true" PS/2 mode, disabling the wheel and such. Granted, the only other OSes I've had on KVM switches with FreeBSD machines are Windows, Linux and OS/X, but it still seems like something's amiss with psm.
