The following reply was made to PR i386/35124; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Diederik <diederikv@softhome.net> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, IXJHAGUXI@earthlink.net Cc: Subject: Re: i386/35124: No mouse with FreeBSD 4.5 with ECS K7S5a Date: Mon, 9 Dec 2002 19:27:12 +0100 Hi, I accidently found this posting, when trying to find a solution for an identical/similar problem with ECS K7S5a. I'm using gentoo linux with devfs. When I first power up my box my mouse works (in windows and linux). If I reboot from linux, my mouse doesn't work in neither linux or windows. If I power it down completely, then my mouse works again. I used to have slack-8.1 and then this didn't happen (it doesn't happen with windows either). I can't tell you much more than that. My guess is it has something to do with either acpi or devfs (on my slack install I had neither of them enabled). It must somehow be a combination of a hardware related issue and kernel support for a certain feature (devfs/acpi). I'm sorry I know I'm very vague. And I know this is a freebsd list, but maybe this helps...
