Hello. I am trying to get a Logitech USB mouse to function under FreeBSD 4.4-stable. Unfortunately, everything that I've tried from the handbook and FreeBSD FAQ results with a non-functional mouse. I have the following in my kernel config: device uhci device ohci device usb device ums /dev/ums0 already exists. I ran MAKEDEV anyway, with no change. 'usbd' comes up with no errors. 'dmesg' reports finding ums0, and also correctly reports that it is a Logitech receiver. 'usbdevs' also reports the same. 'vidcontrol -m on' returns with no output, yet, I have no mouse in console mode. I'm not even going to attempt getting this to work in X until I figure out why it's not even coming up in console mode. I've searched through dejanews as well as the problem reports on freebsd.org with no solutions. Is this a known issue with the current release? There are quite a lot of recent posts on dejanews with people stating the same problem- this coming from a release that is supposed to support USB mice "out of the box." If there is something obvious that I am missing, I'd appreciate a suggestion or three. Thank you for your time with this matter, John Wilson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
