What version of freebsd are you running? I have the same mouse and a belkin
2 port e series switch and it's quite the opposite. Works good both ways but
after I switch from Windows -> Freebsd then back to Windows again it feels
laggy in Windows until I unplug it and plug it back in again. I am using the
PS2 convertor.
