Hi,
Does anyone have any idea what is going on when a ps/2
mouse with a wheel (actually a trackball) sometimes works
just fine and sometimes the wheel reports button release
events only?
This is happening on an AMD64 system running FreeBSD-9.0.
I used truss to trace moused to see how the basic
Well after my last post I started playing with things again, and have
the mouse working in the console and the wheel working in xorg.

#moused_type="intellimouse"

I managed to get my wheel working in xorg, but this required disabling
it for the console. This is a sub-optimal solution, but it works for me
because I don't often want to use the mouse in the console---sometimes I
would like to but I didn't want to fight with it anymore. Here is what
I did:

If it is a usb mouse, make sure the usbd is translating the wheel
events. There is some stuff in the handbook on this.

Hello List,
I'm new to FreeBSD so if this question has been covered to death I
appologize. I can't seem to find any documentation
on how to get my wheel mouse working. Can someone please help me with
either the solution or some doc links?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

However, I can not get the wheel to work anywhere.

I disagree. The necessity of "protocol auto" is documented all the heck
over the place, from the Handbook to the FAQ to the README.mou
I've solved the problem.
If you configure XFree86 to use "Protocol sysmouse" then wheel scrolling will
not work, because this puts the mouse into 5-byte mode which only supports 3
buttons. You have to use "protocol auto" in the XFree86 config to enable
sysmouse 8-byte protocol with support for

I've done something to fsckup my X setup (old monitor died and I was rerunning
the config for the new monitor) and in the process my wheel mouse stopped
working. I've triple-checked everything and I can't work out what's busted.
