Well, the Cybex one I have is not really a dummy manual one, although it was cheap! It supports a subset of the standard high-end Cybex control sequences, one of which is 'reset mouse'. The problem springs, I think, from confusion between (Intellimouse) and (!Intellimouse). The box pretends to be an Intellimouse even when you don't have one [or this is what seems to happen in my case], and so FreeBSD detects that you have an Intellimouse. However, then it all goes wrong, and I don't really know why! Best; I. -- Ian Whalley, .sig under construction.
