I have Logitech bus mouse ( with a bus card) on PCI90.
I have recompiled FreeBSD-1.1.5.1 kernel with a mse0 device as per freebsd.faq
but used IRQ 5 (faq says IRQ 6).
The system appears to recognize it upon booting.
I modifed XF86Config file and uncommented Logitech mice
When X starts, i get root and xterm with a mouse carret, so i can use
that xterm window. But I can't move the pointer except down and to the left.
If i exit X, i see:
Warning: unable to get status of mouse fd (Operation not supported by device)
Any ideas?

Device "/dev/lms0"
EndSection
Works for me.
