MS wireless optical desktop 2000 problem

um, i'm pretty sure the wireless desktop is unsupported

afaik (as an owner of a wireless desktop myself) the damn thing isn't supported in fbsd. unfortunate but thats the way it goes sometime....i forget where the supported hw list is
 
My Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 2.0 isn't working either, I have to use a crappy mouse instead. When is this going to get fixed? I've found threads about it dating from 2005. :-(

The keyboard Just Works. The mouse works out of the box on Linux and Windows.
 
Having the similar trouble with my Microsoft Arc mouse, which is a wireless device as well. Although it works perfectly in 8.0 and 8.1 releases, but the trouble is only under 7.3 - no luck neither with moused nor under X. Any hints?
 
Microsoft hardware is really troublesome, there are some fixes in FBSD but it seems MS changes their hardware quiet often.
