some more information would be handy... laptop model, type of mouse?

with my ibm T30 and an usb mouse, I use these settings:

rc.conf:
moused_enable="YES"
moused_port="/dev/psm0"

XF86Config:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Mouse0"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "Protocol"      "auto"
        Option          "Device"        "/dev/sysmouse"
        Option          "ZAxisMapping"  "4 5"
EndSection

And usbd is running. Like that, both devices work under console, and X
as well.

Hope that helps, t.
