.Nd USB mouse driver
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "device ums"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides support for mice that attach to the USB port.
Supported are
mice with any number of buttons and mice with a wheel.
.Nm usb
and one of
.Nm uhci
or
.Nm ohci
must be configured in the kernel as well.
.Pp
The /dev/ums device presents the mouse as a
.Ar sysmouse
or
.Ar mousesystems
type device.
See
.Nm moused
for an explanation of these mouse types.

.Pp
.Dl moused -p /dev/ums0 -t auto
.Pp
Use the first

.Pp
Change the "Pointer" section in
.Nm XF86Config
to the following
.Pp
.Dl Device "/dev/ums0"
.Dl Protocol "Auto"
.Pp
to be able to use the USB mouse under X.
When using the XiG accelerated X
server, change the mouse device to /dev/ums0 and the mouse type to
"MouseSystems".
.Pp
If you want to be able to use the mouse in both virtual consoles as well
as in X change it to:
.Pp
.Dl Device "/dev/sysmouse"
.Dl Protocol "Auto"
