What Dan posted is correct for 3 button serial mouse.

If you have 2 button mouse add this statement to what Dan posted for
rc.conf


moused_flags="-m 2=3"       # config for 2 button mouse


If you have USB mouse I have info on how to set that up also.

In the last episode (Jun 24), Andrei Iarus said:
> Pls tell me how to, what to install for coping in text mode in
> FreeBSD

Put these in /etc/rc.conf:

moused_enable="YES"      # Run the mouse daemon.
moused_type="auto"       # See man page for rc.conf(5) for available
settings.
moused_port="/dev/psm0"  # Set to your mouse port.
allscreens_flags="-m on" # Enable mouse for all virtual screens

and reboot.

Left button selects, middle pastes, right adjusts an existing
seelction.
