Howdy list, I'm having trouble with this mouse under FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE. If I attach the mouse and then boot FreeBSD, it works great, but if I disconnect the mouse while FreeBSD is running, moused fails to notice that the mouse is gone and keeps running. In addition, reconnecting the mouse fails to, well, reconnect the mouse. kill -HUP on the moused process doesn't work either. Usually, (like, under crappy Windows XP), I just connect the mouse and press the "connect" button on the mouse's base station. A little green light will blip, signifying that the base station is ready to rock, then I press connect on the mouse and it works. Under FreeBSD, pressing "connect" doesn't display the little green light. Is it possible that the base station isn't getting power? I did NOT use special logitech drivers under windows XP. I just used the standard USB mouse driver (actually, I didn't have to install anything, so I guess that means it was the standard driver.) Any ideas?
