Try one of the attached patches. They are taken from usb/77604. The patch is now known to work with at least three different manufacturers mice, and so far as I have been able to tell doesn't break anything that works without it. Maybe someone will eventually commit these patches to the appropriate trees, the PR has only been open for about 10 months... Choose one of the patches based on the release of FreeBSD you are using. the hid.c.patch file is for RELENG_5, hid.c.patch.6 is for RELENG_6 and HEAD. Deposit the file in /usr/src/sys/dev/usb and run patch <hid.c.patch[.6] then recompile and reinstall your kernel. -- Jonathan Fosburgh AIX and Storage Administrator UT MD Anderson Cancer Center Houston, TX
