Hi,
I have the same problem. If I leave the definitions for the mouse out, X
starts without problems and uses the mouse. As long as a mouse
definition is given in the configuration file, I cannot use the mouse.

Hi,
right now I am running freeBSD 6.2 RELEASE with xorg 6.9 and I am
unable to get xorg (icewm) to detect my mouse.

Is moused running? And if it is, how is it configured?
See the FreeBSD handbook and the moused manpage for details:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-post.html#MOUSE
Which brand/model mouse do you have? And how does the mouse connect to
your PC (PS2 or USB)?
What are your mouse settings in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

sorry about the time delay:
um it is a generic PS2 mouse made by digiView
I tried running the xorg config wizard a few tmes choosing different
mouse types each time. None of them work.
as for xorg.conf
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocall" "Auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
(side point) if someone would tell me how to copy and paste with only
a keyboard that would be really nice
Does the mouse work in the console ("DOS-screen")?
xorg usually isn't the problem, it much more often moused which isn't
running or badly configured.
Try running:
moused -t auto -p /dev/psm0
Before starting xorg, see the link I posted earlier.
