Hi there again,

so after using -current of Mon Aug 19 22:50:47 CEST 2002 I get the
same errors. Maybe I should describe the problem more precisely.

On Aug 15, 2002 I upgraded my -current system (world+kernel). Therefore
I used -current of Aug 6, 2002 without any problems.
Since Aug 15 I get following errors with several ps/2 mouses (I only
have two ones - MS Mouse of late 80s and a very new MS IntelliEye):

Aug 20 20:22:49 odin kernel: psmintr: out of sync (00c0 != 0000).
Aug 20 20:22:49 odin kernel: psmintr: discard a byte (1).
Aug 20 20:22:49 odin kernel: psmintr: out of sync (00c0 != 0000).
Aug 20 20:22:49 odin kernel: psmintr: discard a byte (2).
Aug 20 20:22:52 odin kernel: psmintr: out of sync (00c0 != 0000).
Aug 20 20:22:52 odin kernel: psmintr: re-enable the mouse.
Aug 20 20:51:38 odin kernel: psmintr: out of sync (00c0 != 0000).
....

Sometimes the mouse doesn't work after booting or after tons of error
messages like above, /dev/psaux will be disabled by the kernel.

I searched for related questions via google and several freebsd-mailing lists, and tried in fact to set hint.psm.0.flags="0x800" in /boot/device.hints.
I tried both mouses with no different behavior. 

I tried 4.6-RELEASE, which works fine.

Any hints? What could be the problem? And remember, that everything
worked fine with -current of Aug 6, 2002 and before.

Thanks,
Anselm
