... and you have to care that the device isn't already exclusively used by moused. Apropos moused: I didn't get it working anyway with my USB mouse (a Logitech Marble Mouse USB). Moused (with options -d and -f) seems to see everything I do with the mouse, but no cursor appears on the text console. According to the FreeBSD handbook at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/faq/compatibility-kbd-mice.html#MOUSED, you could enable it with "vidcontrol -m on" -- but we don't seem to have that. so I just filed a wishlist bugreport against freebsd-utils to include it: http://bugs.debian.org/544083 Anyway, I didn't get moused and X to have both a working mouse. Even with an X.org config with Option "AutoAddDevices" "no" and Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "Protocol" "SysMouse" EndSection because without them, it tries to open /dev/usm0, is denied access and unloads (!) the mouse driver, even if /dev/sysmouse was successfully found as a mosue just a second before. *grml* It accepted /dev/sysmouse as mouse, but failed later (cursor doesn't move) and I can't determine the reason from the log: (**) Option "Protocol" "SysMouse" (**) Configured Mouse: Device: "/dev/sysmouse" (**) Configured Mouse: Protocol: "SysMouse" (**) Option "CorePointer" (**) Configured Mouse: always reports core events (**) Option "BaudRate" "1200" (**) Option "StopBits" "2" (**) Option "DataBits" "8" (**) Option "Parity" "None" (**) Option "Vmin" "1" (**) Option "Vtime" "0" (**) Option "FlowControl" "None" (==) Configured Mouse: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 50 (**) Configured Mouse: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 (**) Configured Mouse: Buttons: 9 (**) Configured Mouse: Sensitivity: 1 (**) Configured Mouse: BaudRate: 1200 (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Configured Mouse" (type: MOUSE) (**) Configured Mouse: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1 (**) Configured Mouse: (accel) filter chain progression: 2.00 (**) Configured Mouse: (accel) filter stage 0: 20.00 ms (**) Configured Mouse: (accel) set acceleration profile 0 (II) config/hal: Adding input device USB Trackball (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device product 0x0011 (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device AT Keyboard (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) Full xorg.conf: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "pc104" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "Protocol" "SysMouse" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Configured Monitor" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Monitor "Configured Monitor" SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "2048x1152" EndSubSection EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Axels Handgebastel" InputDevice "Generic Keyboard" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Configured Mouse" "CorePointer" EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "AllowEmptyInput" "no" Option "AutoAddDevices" "no" EndSection Anyone an idea?
