What's involved in getting a USB mouse working in -CURRENT ? I have a Micro$oft USB IntelliMouse 1.1A. I have added everything USB to my kernel (as I'm not using any USB klds) and have set usbd_enable to YES in /etc/rc.conf. My kernel and world are up to date as of about 3 hours ago and I have updated my /etc files (and hence have the latest /etc/usbd.conf). I disabled moused in /etc/rc.conf as usbd starts moused when attaching mice. This is what I see in the kernel probes (non-verbose boot with all the USB debugging options): uhci0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> irq 12 at device 7.2 on pci0 usb0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> on uhci0 usb0: USB revision unknown, not supported uhub0: Intel UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub0: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered ums0: Microsoft IntelliMouse, rev 1.00/1.04, addr 2, iclass 3/1 ums0: 3 buttons and Z dir. ums_attach: sc=0xc0921c00 ums_attach: X 8/8 ums_attach: Y 16/8 ums_attach: Z 24/8 ums_attach: B1 0/1 ums_attach: B2 1/1 ums_attach: B3 2/1 ums_attach: size=4, id=0 The problem is that the mouse doesn't work (its not a hardware problem), all I get whenever I move the mouse are lots of the following messages on the console: Discarded 7 bytes in queue Do I need to change /etc/usbd.conf in some way ? Any help greatly appreciated as all my PS/2 and serial mice are dead (luckily I read mail on my dumb terminal with PINE!). -- /=======================================================================\ | Work: Matthew.Thyer@dsto.defence.gov.au | Home: thyerm@camtech.net.au | \=======================================================================/ "If it is true that our Universe has a zero net value for all conserved quantities, then it may simply be a fluctuation of the vacuum of some larger space in which our Universe is imbedded.
