--6DSKjp44G8+sOVNL Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Turns out that the touchpad on the Precision 7520 (and likely several other "newer" (last few years) laptops uses I2C. For stable/12, I had built/installed the sysutils/iichid port; iichid is part of base FreeBSD in stable/13 and head. And while the mouse works (under X11 -- not on a vty) in stable/13 & head; it still does not work under stable/12. I had appended: hw.usb.usbhid.enable=3D1 iichid_load=3D"YES" to /boot/loader.conf for each of stable/12, stable/13, and head. For the latter two, I see several additional kernle modules brought in (such as hms.ko, hidmap.ko, and hkbd.ko); I don't see them either in base stable/12 or in ports (though I may not know where to look). But it's progress! Peace, david --=20 David H. Wolfskill david@catwhisker.org It is supremely disingenuous to claim a lack of jurisdiction, then =20 proceed to participate in a decision on the same matter.
