Re: wireless mouse on 9.1
Time to report back what I got as a wireless mouse. It is logitech m570, trackball. Works fine. I just need some time to adapt to.

It must have been more than 20 years ago when I bought my first one. I also owned several mice. The first one was their first mouse with three buttons. I stopped using it after computers did not have serial ports anymore. So, it simply worked and worked and worked. The first one I had many years ago, kept it for almost 4 years, left mouse button stopped clicking, Logitech sent me a replacement with a wheel, since they'd stopped making the original. I lost that one in a hurricane. About 4 years ago, I bought my first wireless one. About 2 years ago the receiver simply died. Logitech sent me the m570 as a replacement. None failed for me while being on service. One was eaten alive by termites, some got thrown away by an ex. Some gone missing in action. Two are doing currently active service. One with cable, one without. Yea.. I've been happy with Logitech. I didn't even pay for shipping, didn't have to send the old ones back. I was told Throw em away, sell em at a yard sale, we don't want them back... I am not able to tell how these things are handled on the other side of the globe.

wireless mouse on 9.1
I had usb switch to share keyboard and mouse for two nodes, of which freebsd worked flawlessly, but openbsd disconnected quite often and made a lot of antics in X. After all, I dismembered the configuration and now I have 2 kb-s and 2 mice. A lot of wires on the table. The plan would be to get not too expensive wireless mouse for freebsd node. Reading forums I found a lot of people having problem with those kind of mice. Could someone recommend one what is known to work on branch 9? For some reason I prefer logitech. And I assume that usb dongle works on hardware level and does not need anything to work?

Re: wireless mouse on 9.1
I have a Logitech Trackman wireless trackball. works perfectly. As does my daughter's wireless mouse. Also logitech. Thanks, Chuck! That very mouse is recommended to me from old school guys. I would probably get something like m185 or m525 if on sale.

Re: wireless mouse on 9.1
Logitech Wireless Combo MK260 Kb + Mouse with tiny single USB transmitter. Full keyboard (except for LEDs, but who needs them) and simple but decent mice. I probably viewed half of all combo-variants out there to find normal, simple and wireless, this only model fits me. If you have in few meters USB port (for radio) this could fit you too. Hope this helps! 2013/4/21 Zoran Kolic zko...@sbb.rs I have a Logitech Trackman wireless trackball. works perfectly. As does my daughter's wireless mouse. Also logitech. Thanks, Chuck!
