PS/2 mouse doesn't get detected on FreeBSD-9_RELENG

[chigurh]

Hi,

My logitech PS/2 mouse doesn't get detected in 9_0_RELENG-amd64.

Here is my verbose dmesg http://paste.pocoo.org/show/532596

Here is my /boot/device.hints http://paste.pocoo.org/show/532599

Here are my devices in KERNCONF http://paste.pocoo.org/show/532602

When I try to initiate moused with [CMD=]moused -d -i all -p /dev/psm0[/CMD] I get error -

moused: unable to open /dev/psm0: No such file or directory

The mouse works on NetBSD/OpenBSD/SUSE on same machine.

Please revert with suggestions.

Thanks!

You'll have to show your entire kernel config file. Or check that you have the psm device listed in it.

Here are my devices in KERNCONF http://paste.pocoo.org/show/532602

It's missing psm(4)

device          psm             # PS/2 mouse

Hi,

It is not missing psm. Here is full KERNCONF http://paste.pocoo.org/show/532667/. I missed out on including psm during thread creation.

Thanks!

Remove your device.hints file. At quick glance all the entries are default, no need to explicitly set them.

Is that a proposed solution or a general observation. Anyway I removed /boot/device.hints but a functional mouse is still a miss. Cursor appears on console after rebuilding kernel and world for 9_0_RELENG but it won't move.

The crucial issue would seem to be:

atkbdc0: <Keyboard controller (i8042)> failed to probe at port 0x60 on isa0

Since it worked with 8.2, this is a regression and looks very similar to http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2012-January/030935.html

My top-of-head guess is that this is the result of either the HOST-PCI changes mentioned in http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2012-January/031031.html or a change to the ACPI code.

That atkbdc0 prevents boot with ACPI disabled here. (Just upgraded to 9-STABLE from 8-STABLE). Luckily all machines work just fine with it enabled.

Hi Peter, yeah it looks that way. I have opened a PR pending approval. Best, Justin
