I had similar problems with the mouse and keyboard when Xorg 7.4 first came out. I had upgraded to 7.X from 6.X by cvsup/compile/install process, and then did a portupgrade. After the portupgrade neither my Xinerama setup, the mouse, nor the keybord worked. There was an interim fix which involved turning off the new option in xorg.conf so you could revert to moused since there was a bug, as I remember, in the intial Xorg/hal/dbus ports. This was eventually solved and since then I have been using hal/dbus.

A search of this mailing list and the freebsd-x11 mailing list looking for messages referring to "mouse" and "7.4" should turn up the old solution.

My system uses a PS2 mouse and PS2 keyboard (actually, a real PS2 keyboard) so it may be enough different from others so that my solution isn't applicable elsewhere.
