Hello.
I have a running 13.1 installation that works very well.
Now, I have downloaded the last iso for FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT
(FreeBSD-14.0-CURRENT-amd64-20230406-f21faa67ab6b-262010-memstick.img)
and installed it on the same hw (I switched thew discs with new ones).

BSD 14 boots and the usb mouse is recognized at boot but, as soon the
kernel is loaded, the mouse stops to work.

kldstat shows that ums.ko is loaded, and devd is started, but dmesg -a
does not show any messages related to the mouse, and the mouse itself
does not work (no mouse pointer, nothing).

The hardware itself is OK (I'm now writing from BSD 13.1 and the mouse
is working) so I do not understand why it does not work at all in
14-CURRENT.

The question is: does anybody know if they changed "something" into the
code related to usb/moused in BSD 14, that can explain this strangeness?

Thank you.

You might poke through the archives at
https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-current/

If nothing relevant shows up a bug report would likely be
worth entering. FreeBSD-current is a development branch
and doesn't always work.

moused(8) works again with current CURRENT:
# uname -srvK
FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #0 main-n262122-2ef2c26f3f13: Thu Apr 13 08:06:35 UTC 2023 root@releng1.nyi.freebsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC 1400086

I didn't notice anything specific about this bug with git log.
