Hello folks, I have managed to get hold of a New Microsoft Optical Desktop. I have been trying to use its USB interface with Xorg but without any success (This box is running 5.3-Stable, amd64). During boot I can see that both the mouse and the keyboard are detected once and then detached. Again later it had been detected as "Microsoft Optical Desktop". Fair enough. But unfortunately the mouse does not work in console or in Xorg. Moused runs with an argument of -p /dev/ums0 from rc.conf. The keyboard works fine though, or should I call it apparently fine (??). While booting I also get a couple of "Device Busy" messages from kbdcontrol and moused.
Also I have noticed that although my rc.conf says cursor="destructive", the cursor still appears as a blinking block block and not an "under_score". Anyone can help me out in getting there devices work correctly? Regards, S. Indian Institute of Information Technology Subhro Sankha Kar Block AQ-13/1, Sector V Salt Lake City PIN 700091 India
