 It is just that the "-i type" (show info) option probably couldn't
 determine what your mouse is.  `moused' is not able to detect the
 protocol type of the serial mouse if the mouse does not support the
 PnP COM device specification.
 
 Would you manually invoke `moused' in foreground, debug mode?
 
 moused -t mousesystems -D -f -d -p /dev/cuaa0
 
 (You must be root to do this.)  Now move mouse and see debug output.
 You will see button status and X Y count values on screen.  See if
 mouse movement and printed values agree.
 
 Type ^C to stop `moused'.
