My (usb-)mouse is directly plugged into a port on my mainboard. The keyboard is plugged into the PS/2 Port. No other periphials are connected. My mouse works in other OSses (Windows, Linux). I also tried a different usb-mouse, but it didnt work too. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
