Have no idea what you are talking about.. What is syscons ?

Ahh.. it looks like you are running BSD, right ?

Try:

       Section "InputDevice"
         Identifier "mouse0"
         Driver "mouse"
         Option "Protocol" "sysmouse"
         Option "Device"   "/dev/sysmouse"
       EndSection

In the screen section add

       DefaultDepth 16

just before first 'SubSection "Display"'

Change 16 bit subsection so it looks like:
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     16
                Modes    "800x600"
        EndSubSection

If you see monitor not syncing to the signal (though
/var/log/XFree86.0.log shows everything is fine) add

     Option "composite_sync" "off"

to the end of 'Section "Device"'. If this does not help change "off" to
"on".

Also, take a look at http://gatos.sf.net/ Note: binary drivers might not
(will likely not) work for BSD, you will need to compile from source.

If this helps please consider contributing to EFF.
