    I could never get mouse work under X with any protocol other than "auto"

    roman@freepuppy ~ > grep auto /etc/rc.conf /etc/X11/XF86Config    292:0
    /etc/rc.conf:moused_type="auto"
    /etc/X11/XF86Config:    Option "Protocol"    "auto"

    I use a Genius Netscroll+ here (4.5-STABLE - 4.6-STABLE), and
    another (old 3-button) Genius on another 4.5-RELEASE with these
    settings.
