I've just installed FreeBSD 5.3 on my desktop machine (P4 2.8GHz with
512MB RAM) and cannot get my mouse pointer to move in KDE. It is a
Microsoft Wireless Optical 2.0 mouse (USB) and I have the following
section in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file:
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "Auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
Option "Buttons" "7"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
I have installed FreeBSD from the disc 1 ISO file and installed
everything by default. I have not done a kernel recomple at this point.
Is this an issue with my xorg.conf file or a USB issue that requires a
kernel recompile? I did not see anything helpful in the Using X11 in
the manual.
Thanks for the input!
