The following reply was made to PR bin/42213; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Hiroharu Tamaru <tamaru@myn.rcast.u-tokyo.ac.jp> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, vangyzen@stat.duke.edu, freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: bin/42213: moused(8) seems to delay some mouse events from a USB mouse Date: Fri, 15 Nov 2002 02:58:02 +0900 Hi, I found this while I was searching for the same thing. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=42213 FWIW, I have also seen this happen in some of my systems. For me, they happened with PS/2 mice. One happened today on a PII-450 440BX box when I installed FreeBSD on it (4.7-RELEASE); it never run FreeBSD before, so I cannot tell if older versions of FreeBSD or XFree86 works with it.. The other happened on a Toshiba Libretto M3 notebook (Pentium-133) some time ago. IIRC, it looked as if the upgrade of XFree86 to 4.2 caused the break, but I didn't look carefully at that time. In either cases, directing X to use /dev/psm0 instead of /dev/sysmouse resulted as a good workaround, just the same as how you mentioned it in the PR. I had been running many boxes with varaiaty of -STABLE versions and up-to-date XFree86's of the times, and only noticed this problem on the above two boxes. These are two of the oldest hardwares I use with PS/2 mice. Hope it adds some data points. If this gets solved, please let me know too. -- Hiroharu Tamaru To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
