HID mouse driver

SYNOPSIS

To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

device hms
device hidbus
device hid
device evdev

Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

hms_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

The hms driver provides support for HID mice that attach to the HID transport backend. See iichid(4) or usbhid(4). Supported are mice with any number of buttons, mice with a wheel and absolute mice.

The /dev/input/eventX device presents the mouse as a evdev type device.

SYSCTL VARIABLES

The following variable is available as both sysctl(8) variable and loader(8) tunable:

dev.hms.X.debug: Debug output level, where 0 is debugging disabled and larger values increase debug message verbosity. Default is 0.

It default value is derived from loader(8) tunable:

hw.hid.hms.debug

FILES
