Not currently booted into FreeBSD, using 5.2-RELEASE (cvsup RELENG_5_2) in either amd64 or i386 mode will reproduce this problem
>Description:
Logitech makes a cordless keyboard/mouse combination called the Cordless MX Duo. This consists of a wireless keyboard and their MX700 cordless mouse. It uses 1 USB connection or can be used as 2 PS/2 devices using an included adapter and pigtail.
When connected as a USB device, the keyboard and mouse are detected properly however the mouse will not respond with moused and cat /dev/ums0 does not show any output. Configuring XFree86 to use the mouse directly also does not work. The keyboard will work but will occasionally repeat previously pressed keys.
When connected as 2 PS/2 devices, the keyboard is detected properly and works correctly in all situations. However, the mouse is detected as a 'Generic PS/2 device' and the wheel is not available when using moused or directly through XFree86.
I also own a standalone MX700 cordless mouse which is detected correctly and works correctly in USB mode using FreeBSD 4.9 and 5.2
This device does work correctly in Linux.
>How-To-Repeat:
Plug the device in as either USB or PS2 and attempt to configure using moused, etc.
