    Hello,

    >> Well hi firstly make sure /etc/rc.conf does set

    It is a ps2 mouse 5 buttons with its clicking wheel

    It does not for me, specially in console mode : when running sysinstall
    test mouse configuration any move of the mouse close and open several
    times that dialogue same way if I taped enter on the keyboard. Wich
    should not be as the others (non auto) protocols do not act that way.
    I verified mouse cable connection wich could give also such a behavior
    but it did not change anything.

    Excepted I leaved Mouse0 that's exactly my /etc/X11/XF86Config file.

    And what I am looking for is a correct behavior of the mouse even in
    console mode (before starting XFree).

    cat/etc/XF86Config | grep moused
    moused_enable="YES"
    moused_port="/dev/psm0"
    moused_type="ps/2"
    moused_port="/dev/psm0"
    mousedd_type="mousesystems"
    moused_enable="YES"
    moused_type="NO"
    moused_enable="NO"
    moused_port="/dev/psm0"
    mousedd_type="mousesystems"
    moused_enable="YES"
    moused_flags=""
    moused_port="/dev/psm0"
    mousedd_type="intellimouse"
    moused_enable="YES"

    I presume the last three lines are the executed ones ?
    And sure I need to clean that file.

    cat /etc/X11/XF86Config | grep mouse
    Driver "mouse"
    Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"

    That's all I get, using ee I can tell you

    ee /etc/X11/XF86Config
         Identifier "Mouse0"
         Driver "mouse"
         Option "Protocol" "MouseSystems"
         Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
         Option "Buttons" "5"

    But the bad behavior is not only in XServer but in console mode.

    > it# dmesg | grep psm
    > psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0
    > psm0: model IntelliMouse, device ID 3

    dmesg | grep psm
    psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0
    psm0: model 4D+ Mouse, device ID 8

    Well what is a newbie then ?
    I would be afraid to do such bad things than no 72 caracters lines ;-/
    or even worst (I'm able for worst)
