mouse wheel doesn't work
Dear everyone on the list On my xorg-6.9.0 installed on FreeBSD 6.2, USB mouse work just fine with mouse wheel; ps/2 mouse do not work. Nothing happens when scrolling mouse wheel. As I have only one ps/2 mouse I cannot test if all ps/2 mice suffer from such problem or just this one, but I am sure this mouse works fine on Windows and Ubuntu Linux with wheel. By testing with xev it turns out no event is sent to X when scrolling mouse wheel. By running 'moused -df -p /dev/psm0' it turns out mouse daemon is not aware of scrolling at all (no message output when scrolling wheel, a lot of message output when moving mouse or clicking). Various parameter of moused is tried, including '-z 4' and various mouse type (which always get me the message mouse type mismatch (ps/2 != mouseman), ps/2 is assumed, as manual suggested there is only one type for ps/2 mice). Mouse section of xorg seems to be correct, and I think it's not useful to tweak X configuration if moused cannot by itself detect mouse wheel movement. Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse0 Driver mouse Option Protocol auto Option Device /dev/sysmouse Option Buttons 5 Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 EndSection xmodmap also shows there is no re-mapping of mouse buttons. Again if moused isn't aware of scrolling, working on X level doesn't seem to be helpful. The box is thinkpad 380XD with an IBM red check-point on the keyboard, which as far as I know is also /dev/psm0, probably something on hardware level is done to merge signal of check-point and real ps/2 mouse together, and mouse wheel movement might be dropped during this merge. manual pages for psm0 suggested there are multiple operation level of the driver, at level one wheel events are ignored, at level two wheel events are included. The manual suggested how to set operation level in C, but didn't say how to set or get current operation level with command line (if it's possible at all). If it's because the model if my mouse is happen not to be in the model database of psm0 then what should I do to submit my mouse model to the database to help FreeBSD have a larger coverage of hardware information? Thanks. P.S. I can use USB mouse which is fine, just still like to ask about PS/2 mouse out of curious.

Thank you for the information! Now I have made it work.
0) edit /etc/rc.d/moused, remove '-t {$mytype}' from moused parameter
list:
#/usr/sbin/moused ${myflags} -p ${myport} -t ${mytype} ${_pidarg}
/usr/sbin/moused ${myflags} -p ${myport} ${_pidarg}
1) enter DOS mode with a Windows 98 rescue disk
2) use the PS2.EXE form Lenovo, run 'ps2.exe tpoint autodisable';
3) reboot, enter FreeBSD, mouse wheel is working now.
It's important to do step 0 because moused can only forward wheel scroll
to X if it's invoked without -t parameter. I think there are two bugs:
Bug A:
As manual of moused says:
For the PS/2 mouse:
ps/2 This is the only protocol type available for the
PS/2 mouse and should be specified for any PS/2
mice, regardless of the brand.
In fact, it is wrong! If I invoke moused with -t ps/2, mouse
wheel doesn't work.
This doesn't work (according to manual it should):
moused -p /dev/psm0 -t ps/2
In fact, only this works: moused -p /dev/psm0, no -t
parameter.
This must be a bug. 100% of all users who read the manual should
directly conclude they should get equal or better result with -t
ps/2 than with no -t parameter for their ps/2 mouse, this is
wrong, they get better result without -t parameter.
Bug B:
As said in the manual, -t is an optional
parameter. /etc/rc.d/moused should respect this.
If user didn't specify -t, then it should not assume to use -t
microsoft, it should launch moused without -t parameter. Even
if there is a good reason to assume the device is microsoft
type, this assume logic should be placed in moused source code.
Moused should be the one knowing how to handle different
situation automatically and fall-back sanely. The rc.d script
tries to do too much and think it's smarter then device driver
on deciding device type without even communicating to device at
all.
This is a user's point of view and welcome developer with
background knowledge to correct me.
Thanks again Nikola for helping me out!

mouse wheel sends incorrect buttons
I am using a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer in xwindows on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE. The mouse works correctly (except for the side buttons - I'll worry about those later), but the mouse wheel has some odd behaviour in apps like firefox and thunderbird. Scrolling down works correctly, but scrolling up seems to send a button click as well as a scroll event. I played around with xev and found that when scrolling up, a button4 event is (correctly) sent, but then any other action sends a button9 and button8 event as well. Scrolling down only sends a button5 event which is correct. Here is the relevant section in xorg.conf: Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse0 Driver mouse Option Protocol auto #Option Buttons 7 Option Buttons 5 Option Device /dev/psm0 Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 EndSection I added the `Option Buttons 5' line hoping to remove the possibility of button 8 and 9 existing, but it didn't seem to work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ xmodmap -pp There are 9 pointer buttons defined. PhysicalButton Button Code 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 8 8 9 9 Then I tried mapping the button 8 and 9 keys to other buttons, but xmodmap didn't allow it. Also, I'm not running moused if that is significant. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have seen some similar questions on forums and the mailing list archives, but no definitive solutions. Any help would be great. Thanks, Jon ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You might want to use the default configuration and configure applications to use buttons 8 and 9 for button actions. Though it is largely undecided right now whether the default like it is now is a good idea, or whether other buttons should be reserved for the secondary wheel. If I run mouse.sh I get this: xmodmap: commandline:1: bad number of buttons, must have 11 instead of 7 xmodmap: 1 error encountered, aborting. This is because due to default ButtonMapping you get 4 more buttons than configured. But you don't want to use xmodmap any more.

Simplest way to find out if your mouse supports this is to kill the moused daemon, then issue the command: moused -p /dev/psm0 -t auto -d -f and read the first line, it will print out the model of the mouse (for example MouseMan+) then move the wheel up and down should generate a stream of events on the console If moving the wheel generates nothing, buy a different mouse. usb and serial mice with wheels can be tested with the same procedure except change the port -p of course. 1. Must know ps2 bus : the ps/2 bus is mapped as /dev/psm0 /dev/psm0 : support only 'ps/2' protocol ( moused(8) ) moused : map /dev/psm0 as a virtual port to /dev/sysmouse (ie like /dev/ttyv0 is a virtual tty) X : work with the /dev/sysmouse virtual device as input device. xorg.conf : When setting up Protocol to Auto the protocol choosed by X is ps/2 which don't work for me (i don't know how to use a wheel with it without setting up parms for each apps) xorg.conf : setting up Protocol to sysmouse is the best way i find to use my wheel. /sysmouse/ work natively with xterm, Mozilla, and so on. No needs to change anything. You should NEVER set the protocol for the mouse in either Xfree86 or xorg to anything other than sysmouse, when using FreeBSD. And, if your going to run X you should -always- run moused. Per the man page if you use moused, ps/2 or auto are the only acceptable protocols that are allowed to be set for the ps/2 port. During the FreeBSD installation for 4.X you are asked to set these up. 2. Parameters /etc/rc.conf : moused -p /dev/psm0 -t ps/2 moused -p /dev/psm0 -t auto is setup by the FreeBSD installation program and it will work just as well. Note - many wheel mice use a push on the wheel as a second button. /etc/X11/xorg.conf : Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse0 Driver mouse OptionProtocol sysmouse OptionDevice /dev/sysmouse OptionButtons 5 OptionZAxisMapping X This probably should be: OptionZAxisMapping 4 5 In fact, the only thing that generally needs to be added to this section is: OptionButtons 5 OptionZAxisMapping 4 5 EndSection 3. Some tips Testing : 1 - kill the moused daemon 2 - set mouse on console : vidcontrol -m on 3 - launch moused on foreground to see if it's work : moused -f -p /dev/psm0 -t ps/2 4 - press ^C to end 5 - if result are ok, launch moused with your previous parms 6 - set up rc.conf xorg.conf as above. 7 - try to use a lightweight wm like IceWM or twm to test, it respect well X parms. For testing with twm: fill an xterm with text, scroll up and down. firefox also supports the scroll wheel. 4. Comments i don't know why, but logoff/login or reboot your computer in order to get this stuff working properly : first time i set this parms, they don't work. Because i was almost sure they must work, i rebooted my computer and they work fine. Perhaps some guy from BSD could explain ...

IMPS/2 for mouse-wheel not supported
Hi, I have a brand new Microsoft optical wheel mouse with a 'tilt wheel'. It works as a 3-button mouse under X with: Option Protocol PS/2 Option Device/dev/psm0 but the wheel doesn't work (i.e. doesn't even show up in `xev`) The X documentation: [ http://www.xfree86.org/current/mouse6.html ] seems to suggest that I use either IMPS/2 or ExplorerPS/2, but both of these fail with Protocol not supported. Does FreeBSD support PS/2 mouse initialization (which the above link says is required for these protocols)? Is there a kernel module I need to enable this? Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm asking this because i have done everything that is mandatory to mouse wheel works but it ins't working. -- Thanks Regards Luís Vitório Cargnini Are you using moused or trying to use the mouse directly from X? I found that I had forgotten the proper procedure for getting the wheel to work correctly the last time I configured a new machine. If you are using moused, make sure you use the -z flag and probably have it look like this: moused -t auto -p /dev/psm0 -r high -z 4 In rc.conf I have: moused_enable=YES moused_flags=-r high -z 4 Then, in XF86Config the only thing you have to do is make sure that you are using 'Auto' or 'Sysmouse' as the mouse protocol, /dev/sysmouse as the mouse device and have the line: Buttons 5 In that section. If you do it this way it should work. I am not completely sure how to set up the mouse with the wheel bypassing moused and doing it directly with X, but I believe you just have to change the port and protocol (probably to 'Auto' and '/dev/psm0', respectively) and add: ZAxisMapping 4 5 To the XF86Config file. I use the moused method, and it has usually worked for me. The only time I have ever had mouse wheel problems was when using a KVM switch that did not seem to present the mouse capabilities properly to FreeBSD during boot. -Will ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Mouse wheel Not working in 5.0/5.1
I think what's going on here, or not understood is simply this. Taking my mouse, you have the left and right button (1 2) the wheel, it is clickable (3) and then the Up/Down motion (4 and 5) I did mine manually. This worked for me.
