I have sent it already to the XFree86-4 port's maintainer on July 18th,
but so far I haven't received any reply.  Maybe I should contact him
again.

The patch solves the problem here too. Perhaps it could be added to the other
FreeBSD patches in the XFree86-4 port.

This patch does indeed fix the problem here. Thanks!
This should really make it into 4.0.2...

Mine is set to (5.0-CURRENT):

Section "InputDevice"

Identifier  "Mouse1"
Driver  "mouse"
Option "Protocol""MouseMan"
Option "Device"  "/dev/ttyd1"

EndSection

And (4.1RC):

Section "Pointer"
   Protocol"MouseMan"
   Device  "/dev/psm0"
   BaudRate1200
   Resolution  100
   Buttons 3
EndSection

This problem is not specifically related to -CURRENT; it happens with
XFree86 4.0.1 when the configured mouse protocol is "Auto". Another glitch:
"Protocol SysMouse" does not work with moused; however, "Protocol Mousesystems"
does.

One suggestion was made that I might have been the result of the recent
changes to the syscons driver ... something about entropy?

I don't have this problem, using XFree86 4.0.1, the ati module, /dev/psm0, 
and a current from early june.  I do have a problem that some Solaris
applications die horrible deaths trying to display on the FreeBSD box.
That's probably neither FreeBSD nor XFree's fault though.

Yes, I can confirm it. Going back to Xfree 3.3.6 fixes it.

There was a patch floating around which fixed these mouse problems for me.

Make that three ... same environment except a GeoForce256 Video card
... all worked well with XFree4.0 ...

Same problem here on current (make world + kernel last week) with Xfree86 
4.0.1 using a V3000 and and ps2 mouse. I tried using "Device" "/dev/mouse"
with moused and "Device" "/dev/psm0" without moused. With both settings the
mouse is frozen after switching back to X.

I didn't have this problem with Xfree 4.0. It just appeared when I updated 
to the new 4.0.1 port. 
I don't have this problem on Linux using Xfree86 4.0.1 on the same computer.

Mouse frozen in X when returning from text console

2000-07-26 Thread Jos Backus

[This is with yesterdays' -current and today's kernel, and Xfree86 4.0.1 using
the ati driver module.]

Something I noticed today: switch to text console from X using C-A-F1; upon
return, the mouse cursor is frozen.  moused appears to still work because I
can cut/paste text in the text console.  Restarting moused doesn't help.

Is anybody else seeing this?
