Same mouse... same problem (with FreeBSD 4.1.1) I do not remember well what I did (I do not use this mouse anymore), but doing the following solved the problem (until the next reboot) : 1-kill moused 2-unplug the mouse 3-plug the mouse again 4-restart moused A better solution would be welcome... js PS: There was a very little thread on this subject on fr.comp.os.bsd, 3 weeks ago. -- Science is like sex: sometimes something useful comes out, but that is not the reason we are doing it - Richard Feynman To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
