Doh!  My mouse (a Microsoft Cordless Optical Mouse) worked fine with
Knoppix/Linux OS and with XP of course but does NOT work with FreeBSD 5.2!

I tried plugging it in as PS/2 but the little light does not come on.  My
/etc/rc.conf has /dev/sysmouse and type "auto" but still no go.  I am
posting this in the hopes that it will partially dissuade those considering
buying this make and model mouse!  :\

Will someone note this "conflict" or malfunction at:
