## 5.1. About mouse configuration

If your serial mouse does not work try using `kermit` or `tip` to connect to the mouse serial port and verify that it does indeed generate characters.

The NetBSD pms mouse driver handles PS/2 style mice as Busmouse. Specify the protocol busmouse in the mouse section of your `XF86Config` file if you're using a PS/2 mouse.

Only standard PS/2 mice are supported by this driver. Newest PS/2 mice that send more than three bytes at a time (especially intellimouse, or mouseman+ with a "3D" roller) are not supported yet.

See README.mouse for general instruction on mouse configuration in XFree86.
