It's showing the mouse as USB, so you should be able to use it there. I have had a lot of problems getting the optical mice I have to work under FreeBSD 5.x, though. In your rc.conf, you want to make sure to have usbd_enable="YES" and moused_enable="YES" moused_type="auto" moused_port="/dev/ums0" That should work, though, as I said, I've had problems getting it to work after 4.9. Who knows, though, that could have just been my mouse. David
