there's only one receiver for both the wireless keyboard and the mouse.
Ah! Big difference.
The keyboard does get detected, but then I only see this Human Interface
Device which basically seems to do nothing (what can an HID do, btw?).
HID is an acronym for "Human Interface Device" and refers to anything that
humans interact with - keyboards, mice, microphones, joysticks, graphics
tablets, etc.
Here's the usbdevs output:
addr 1: OHCI root hub, NEC
addr 4: PSC 750, Hewlett-Packard
addr 3: USB Optical Mouse, A4Tech
addr 2: Synaptics WheelPad, Synaptics Inc.
addr 1: OHCI root hub, NEC
addr 2: Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop® 2.10, Microsft
addr 1: EHCI root hub, NEC
Since the MS Wireless Optical Desktop is being detected correctly, I would
assume that FreeBSD has the appropriate drivers for it. If you have access
to a Windows box, I'd connect it to that and see if the mouse is detected.
If not, it's obviously defective. If it is, then at least you know
communication between the mouse and the keyboard receiver is working.
