My mouse has a fancy wheel and buttons. Can I use them in FreeBSD?

The answer is, unfortunately, ``It depends''. These mice with additional features require specialized driver in most cases. Unless the mouse device driver or the user program has specific support for the mouse, it will act just like a standard two, or three button mouse.

For the possible usage of wheels in the X Window environment, refer to that section.
