I try this.
I do a hal-device find the unique udi to have /dev/psm0 in input.device,
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/psm_0'
freebsd.driver = 'psm' (string)
freebsd.unit = 0 (0x0) (int)
platform.id = 'psm.0' (string)
freebsd.device_file = '/dev/psm0' (string)
info.capabilities = { 'input', 'input.mouse' } (string list)
info.category = 'input' (string)
input.device = '/dev/psm0' (string)
input.x11_driver = 'mouse' (string)
info.addons = { 'hald-addon-mouse-sysmouse' } (string list)
info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/psm_0' (string)
info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/atkbdc_0' (string)
info.product = 'PS/2 Mouse' (string)
info.subsystem = 'platform' (string)
and add a new file in /usr/local/etc/hal/fdi/policy/ with
true
restart hald, reboot and...nothing :-(
I've try also with something like
true
but same result.
The touchpad still working and most important the mouse still NOT working.
Any help ?
Thanks.

What happens is that when xorg starts it first install the touchpad as required by the config file, and then tries to install it again via autodetection. Of course the second installation of the same device doesn't work as the device is already busy with xorg, and xorg stops to try to auto-install devices.

My only point was/is if it does not work for your configuration, you are not likely (in my experience) to be able to get it working without a pretty good knowledge of fbsd, xorg and C.

I have one, but I try with him (I use since hal existe on BSD) and without him. For the same result. The pad in the laptop working but not the usb mouse. In fact I don't think the cpu load is connected to this problem. I already send a email to freebsd-stable. Well but that not a solve the Xorg don't see the mouse. The first thing to do is to add Option "AutoAddDevices" "Off" In your ServerLayout section of xorg.conf. Then restart X and try to plug a mouse again. It may result in your mouse not working in X, but at least it should stop your computer from using all it's CPU trying to map the mouse. If indeed the CPU load does not reach skyhigh levels when you plug a USB mouse, we will be able to conclude that there is a DBus/hald problem. Also could you do the following - Mouse unplugged : # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald stop # /usr/local/sbin/hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes>> /tmp/hald_debug.log 2>&1 # dbus-launch lshal>> /tmp/dbus_hal_debug.log 2>&1 - plug mouse # dbus-launch lshal>> /tmp/dbus_hal_debug.log 2>&1 And post the content of both log files ? That should help in understanding what is going on. In the worst case there are mecanism that will keep HAL from tinkering/probing usb mouse. Here : the hald log file : http://dl.free.fr/rqLTgOvPS (I put some blank ligne juste before I plug the mouse) the dbus log file before I plug the mouse : http://dl.free.fr/iDgqyLgu6 and the dbus log file after I plug the mouse : http://dl.free.fr/lZuRadJFx I'm not qualified to said if it's hald/dbus problem, FreeBSD-Stable problem or both. I don't think it's a FreeBSD-Stable problem because in the dmesg we see the mouse plug ugen5.2: at usbus5 ums1: on usbus5 ums1: 5 buttons and [XYZT] coordinates ID=0 Ok looking at your files, it does not appear to be a hal/dbus problem either : The device is correctly probed and registered with DBus, known as /dev/ums1, and the x11 driver is mapped to "mouse" which should be correct. For one reason or another, xorg is not catching/processing the info. Can you send the Xorg log ? Just wait until X is up and then plug the mouse. I am curious to see what happens inside xorg.

Performance and mouse problems
Hi all I've got two very strange problem I'm running 9-stable on a Dell Laptop E4200. Since this morning when I put a USB mouse (I've try three mouses to be sure) it's not working. The kernel and HAL see the mouse but Xorg don't seem do anything. The second point is the load of the system is alway more than 1 (~1.5-2) event I do nothing. I kill all services, daemon, software and the load never drop. I've stop : hald dbus powerd etc... and ps don't show any process eating some ressource. But the load is high (and the laptop is very hot). I make a csup of world and build new userland, and news kernel. And nothing change HELP...please.
