https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D223109 Bug ID: 223109 Summary: x11-servers/xorg-server: Fix broken vmmouse detection Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: x11@FreeBSD.org Reporter: thellstrom@vmware.com Assignee: x11@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(x11@FreeBSD.org) Created attachment 187303 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D187303&action= =3Dedit Replacement patch-config_devd.c with automatic vmmouse detection Vmmouse detection has never worked with devd and hence, vmmouse has been mo= re or less useless since at least FreeBSD 10.3. I've implemented a fix in the devd config backend. It's not super clean, but given the version of the devd config backend that's upstream, I guess this = will do for now. Please review for security since we're calling an external application (vmmouse_detect) as root. The utility vmmouse_detect is part of the xf86-input-vmmouse package / port. Also if possible, please include in all maintained freebsd versions. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
