ums
— USB mouse
and touchpanel support
ums* at uhidev? reportid ?
wsmouse* at ums?
The ums
driver provides support for USB
mice and touchpanels. Access to the movement data is through the
wsmouse(4) driver.
Be aware that many USB mice will, if the mouse device is not open, detach and reattach themselves repeatedly at regular intervals (usually around one minute) causing spam on the console and the system log. This is apparently intentional behavior on the part of the hardware manufacturers. The best workaround is to keep the mouse device open, either via X11, or, if not using the window system, by running wsmoused(8).
The ums
driver appeared in
NetBSD 1.4. Touchpanel support was added in
NetBSD 5.1.
