It took me some work but now I know, that moused is the culprit ;-) moused was invoked with the following arguments from within rc.i386: mouseport=/dev/cuaa0 mousetype=mouseman moused -p ${mouseport} -t ${mousetype} X11R6 was started by me with xinit. The Numlock key is on. S3 Server. Try to startup the visual schnauzer. The mousepointer freezes ! Terminate X11, kill moused, and restart X11. Then everything is fine. X11 also uses cuaa0 as mouse port. Additionally I watched the mouse jumping from time to time when using it under X11 or it was as if I had clicked somewhere but I didn't.
