Mouse Question/ Kernel Question

2004-02-25 Thread David Anderson
I have printed out the HOW-TO on Setting up a USB mouse in FreeBSD 4.x. 
(www.defcon1.org is the source)  What I am trying to do is set up a USB Wheel Mouse 
(actually it is a wireless mouse/keyboard ) with FreeBSD 5.2.   FreeBSD recognizes the 
keyboard just fine (the wireless hub for the keyboard  mouse attaches to a usb port). 
 Is there anything that I need to do differently. 

Also how do a customize the kernel ( I need to add the Atheros driver for my wireless 
PCI ethernet card).  Thank you for your time and assistance.  

Sincerely,

David Anderson

Does your mouse show in the system's boot messages? You can view these 
messages with the dmesg command. Lines concerning a USB mouse should 
show as lines beginning with umse. Also, what does the usbdevs command show?

Also how do a customize the kernel ( I need to add the Atheros driver for my wireless PCI ethernet card).  Thank you for your time and assistance.

The FreeBSD Handbook is your bible for learning the system :)

Good Luck
