Hi there,
I have the following problem with my mouse:
I have installed and configured my 4.3-RELEASE box at home,
where I have a 3-button Genius serial mouse. I had the cursor,
and copy&paste functionality working fine.
I then brought this box to my office, and plugged in an
"AROWANA Jerry Mouse Serial" (3 buttons). The cursor was
there, without any change to the config. Ten minutes ago I
realized I had the cursor, but could not copy&paste anything.
I ran /stand/sysinstall, Configure -> Mouse, Type -> Auto,
Port -> COM1, Enable. I have the cursor moving at the
confirmation dialog, however, it disappears as soon as I
answer "yes". Now I don't have the cursor in any of the ttys
either. If I restart the machine, the cursor appears, but
I still can't copy&paste.
The same happens with A4Tech OK-520 (serial, 2 buttons).
I have tried all the protocols with the same (or worse) results.
Any ideas?
