Dear freebsd-questions: My Genius NetScroll+ PS/2 optical mouse was working fine in the console, = and in KDE, with FreeBSD 4.7, but is not working in the newly installed = FreeBSD 5.1 console. KDE and X haven't been re-installed yet. In /stand, and from ./sysinstall, and then from 'perform post install = configuration', and then from the mouse configurator, I've tried several = times to select the port as /dev/psm0 and the protocol as 'auto' or = PS/2. When I test the mouse in the next step, the pointer is initially = difficult to find and then, with mouse movement, appears as if delayed = by about 3 seconds, but does seem to move to a reasonable position. = While moving, the pointer disappears, and then it re-appears when the = mouse is stationary. Thanks for any clues. Sincerely, Lee Hinkleman
