vmmouse mouse driver does not correctly work with xorg-server under VMware Player/Workstation environment. xorg-server can not obtain the correct coordinates of the mouse pointer. The reason and the workaround are described in: http://groups.google.com/group/lucky.freebsd.questions/browse_thread/thread/9d44a3f3068edd07/df2ce51aa42be533 This workaround should likely be removed when the next xorg-server is released. Fix: Patch from http://groups.google.com/group/lucky.freebsd.questions/browse_thread/thread/9d44a3f3068edd07/df2ce51aa42be533 How-To-Repeat: Install FreeBSD + xorg as a guest OS of VMware Player. Install xf86-input-vmmouse and xf86-video-vmware drivers. Configure xorg to use vmmouse and vmware drivers. Run X. You find you can not click any place while the mouse pointer is visible and moving.
