I have the exact same mouse working on 5.2.1 - Here is the section from XF86Config
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
Option "ZaxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
I need this mouse to work in the console (mode); Tackling one thing at a time, XFree86 is next.
In /etc/rc.conf I have the line
moused_enable="YES"
I am using the adapter that came with the mouse and it is plugged into the PS2 port.
FWIW-
I have a MS Optical USB cordless mouse on my 5.2.1 box, connected to a Belkin OmniCube 4-port kvm switch with a usb-ps2 adapter, and it works great in both X and console windows. My XF86Config mouse section looks like this -
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "SysMouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
Option "ZaxisMapping" "4 5"
# Mouse-speed setting for PS/2 mouse.
Option "Emulate3Buttons"
EndSectionAnd my rc.conf contains these lines -
moused_enable="YES" moused_port="/dev/psm0" moused_type="auto" usbd_enable="YES"
I wonder now if the usbd_enable line is even needed since the mouse is being run thru the ps2 adapter.
On the bottom of my mouse it says 'Wireless Optical Mouse Blue'. I haven't made any mods/changes to the kernel, it is completely generic.

Same here.
I find that the mouse is responsive and I really like the feel. Now if only MS could do something with software..... Good Luck

Thanks, I'll need it. When I used to run FreeBSD 4.6.2, my Canon CanoScan scanner was not supported. Now I hear that it is under 5.2 but my M$ft cordless optical mouse is not (out of the box and into USB that is...)
