Hi Matt and others,

Since DragonFly will be releasing soon, I thought it would be a good idea to 
mention some minor issues that I have with my MS Wireless Desktop 
keyboard/mouse. I used to use Logitech which worked great (untill i broke the 
mouse).

Issue 1:
Keyboard doesnt work in the DragonFly boot menu.

Issue 2:
Mouse isnt recognized at all.

Here is dmesg output:

ukbd0: <Microsoft Microsoft\M-. 2.4GHz Transceiver V1.0, class 0/0, rev 
2.00/2.70, addr 3> on uhub0
kbd1 at ukbd0
uhid0: <Microsoft Microsoft\M-. 2.4GHz Transceiver V1.0, class 0/0, rev 
2.00/2.70, addr 3> on uhub0


As you can see the mouse is uhid instead of ums.

Would it be difficult to get this working before the release? In FreeBSD 7 the 
mouse doesnt work either.

Petr
