I was wondering if there could be a way to 'force' a type of ps/2 mouse. I have a logitech firstmouse+, with a wheel. It works fine if it is plugged directly into the back of this machine. However, I have it running through a KVM switch so that I can have one mouse for both of my machines. When in this configuration, the wheel action never works (although it works on the other machine, which runs windows), and the button action sometimes also doesn't work (this is rare). When plugged into the switch, I get this: psm0: failed to get data. psm0: irq 12 on atkbdc0 psm0: model Generic PS/2 mouse, device ID 0 When plugged directly into the machine the third line comes up with MouseMan+. I have tried to manipulate moused to account for the wheel by mapping the wheel events as extra buttons, and I have tried to do the same in XF86Config. Neither work. Not terribly important, but it would be nice to know if there is something I can do about it. -Will To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
