Although the announcement is still pending, I have just upgraded two machines from 10.0-RC4 to 10.0-RC5. Now my mouse is not working in Xorg anymore. Is it necessary to rebuild all ports due to the ABI change in r260406? Is there a reasonable way to find out, which ports are affected? Is r260406 related at all? Some details in case the cause of the problem is not simply using old packages: /dev/psm0 and /dev/usm0 are both picked up by moused and still work on ttyvX (due to moused_enable="YES" and devd_enable="YES" in rc.conf). Before the upgrade, Xorg would use /dev/sysmouse, but now it tries to open /dev/psm0 and /dev/usm0 directly, which fails, since they are already in use. I thought "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" as "InputDevice" in my xorg.conf was still relevant, but at least /dev/psm0 and /dev/usm0 are detected by hald, since they are not listed in xorg.conf. >From ps, I see hald is still recognizing sysmouse: hald-addon-mouse-sysmouse: /dev/psm0 (hald-addon-mouse-sy) hald-addon-mouse-sysmouse: /dev/ums0 (hald-addon-mouse-sy) All ports related are up to date and have been build WITH_NEW_XORG=yes but otherwise default options on 10.0-RC3 or 10.0-RC4 (amd64).
