Others have reported same USB mouse problem in -questions. >Description: In order to get a USB mouse to work you need to have moused_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf. However on booting the following error is generated: moused: unable to open /dev/psm0 : Device not configured Note the following lines from my /etc/rc.conf usbd_enable="YES" #moused_port="/dev/psm0" #moused_port="/dev/mouse" moused_type="auto" moused_enable="YES" It seems to me that you shouldn't need moused_enabled, but it has some kind of side-effect when the system tries to enable it that allows a USB mouse to work. >How-To-Repeat: Self-evident. >Fix: None found. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
