Wow! As you all know, it works fine under the i386 6.2RC2 with the nvidia stuff. Everything works flawlessly (I'm usually no more than a day being the stuff you push to the git xorg origin) Wanted to ping Florent specifically on two things and your email @freebsd.org bounces with a 4xx don't like you. You indicated on your blog in a November entry something about the input drivers all being borked except for keyboard, mouse, and evdev. The last one has me interested even though it's a linux device since I was hoping to exploit its functionality to take advantage of these cool extra mouse buttons. Is evdev supposed to work on our freebsd machines? I think I read it wrong. Assuming it isn't supposed to work I would volunteer to assist in the effort to support these extra mice buttons. Would you be the contact person to send patches to? I'm assuming evdev shouldn't work but if it does, someone please let me know so I don't reinvent the wheel. And again, thanks to all.
