atkbdc0 is supposed to control both the keyboard and PS/2 mice...

You should have something like:

device   atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD	# The controller
device	 atkbd0  at atkbdc? irq 1	# The keyboard
device   psm0    at atkbdc? irq 12	# The mouse

What you most probably have is an irq conflict with something...
dmesg output would be most useful... Maybe even a boot -v plus 
dmesg...

Anyway, Good Luck!
Kal.
