Yeah, I have it working under -CURRENT: XFree86 Version 4.0 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6400) Release Date: 8 March 2000 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems. (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ) Operating System: FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT i386 [ELF] [snip] (==) Mouse1: Protocol: "Auto" (**) Mouse1: Core Pointer (==) Mouse1: Buttons: 3 Relevant config in XF86Config: Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" If you don't specify a protocol, XF86-4 will auto-probe the device and should pick it up no problem. This particular problem is mentioned in the documentation for XFree86 4.0 by the way, as well as how to resolve it. I should also note I didn't build mine from the ports (the port wasn't available when I built it) but from the raw source.
