"MPAREDES" needs to make sure the USB daemon is running by modifying /etc/rc.conf to include usbd_enable="YES" usbd will automatically handle mice (by running moused, AFAIR, so you don't need a moused_enable entry in /etc/rc.conf). Of course, you also need a kernel with the USB stuff. GENERIC has it. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA
