All I know is that is Macally USB mouse is going to be >fun hunting for the mouse protocol 8) No, you don't need to find out protocol :-) Run moused to see how it recognizes the USB mouse: moused -i all -p /dev/ums0 It will print some info. Then start the mouse daemon as: moused -p /dev/ums0 kbdcontrol -m on The mouse pointer is now available in the text console. In order to use the USB mouse in the X session, you tell the X server that the mouse is at /dev/sysmouse and its protocol type is "Auto" Device "/dev/sysmouse" Protocol "Auto" If you decide not to use the mouse daemon and let the X sever directly read from the USB mouse, you still tell the X server the mouse protocol type is "Auto". Device "/dev/ums0" Protocol "Auto" (If you are using XFree86 3.3.1 or earlier, the protocol type is "MouseSystems".)
