Hi! First of all, thanx for your answer! > Doesn't really matter, most "weird-brand" PS/2 mice these days either use > some odd Logitech or MS IntelliMouse Explorer PS/2 compatible protocol.

Hope mine will have the wheel working someday :) > #/etc/rc.conf: > moused_enable="YES" > moused_port="/dev/psm0" > moused_type="auto" > moused_flags="-z 4" Should the mouse's wheel work on console ?
