I can recommend these:- http://www.genius-europe.com/en/produktdetail.php?ID2=23&ID=24&ID3=56 Definitely work with Linux and BSD. Cheap and they are PS/2. I have some of the Microsoft mice - they're more expensive, have a slightly heavier (less flimsy) body, larger pads on the base, a bit larger, and have a USB connector. They also work just fine with Linux and BSD - no fiddling needed. Both mice only need the following if you use an xorg.conf:- Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Cheers -- Tuttle?
