Similar. ASUS P5K, GigaByte G33-DS3R. Option the USB mouse support OFF in the BIOS. Otherwise, though detected, it is *ALSO* presumed to be 'in use', since the BIOS deosn't just 'enable' it - it actually starts it, and before the OS boots. If NOT claimed by the BIOS, FreeBSD will find and use it from the defaults in /etc/rc. No need to even bother with an /etc/rc.conf entry. Xorg (if you use it) will generally be au fait with that, even with the mouse active in a CLI session before you startx or a wm. The OS it doing as it should do here - honoring the pre-existing resource claim. Bill
