>Description:
Upon adding a PCI USB card to my computer and connecting a USB mouse (and making all the necessary additions to the kernel and rc.conf and /dev) I found that I got the error at bootup in the rc.i386 initialization section:
moused: unable to open /dev/ums0: device busy
This is caused from moused being ran twice for the same device (ums0).
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a USB mouse and follow the instructions at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/hardware.html#USBMOUSE
>Fix:
As per http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/hardware.html#USBMOUSE
section 4 should have moused_enable="NO" since usbd should handle starting up moused (it does this automatically). This way, you can hot-swap the USB device as well.
