It is not the problem. I have setup mouse many times in FreeBSD before.

freebsd:/home/staff/yurtesen#ls -al /dev/ums0 
crw-r--r--  1 root  operator  111,   0 Dec 30 19:56 /dev/ums0
freebsd:/home/staff/yurtesen#

The mouse just doesnt work under FreeBSD.
The usbd is running and it runs moused automatically
I tried killing moused and using the command
cat /dev/ums0
but I dont get anything to screen when I use my mouse.

This mouse is working with PS/2 for sure but it shows itself as a USB
mouse. Under the mouse the model number is

M/N: M-RR67A
Cordless Optical mouse

I have also found another person who has the same problem from google. He
couldnt find a solution either. I am sure this requires a bit source
tweaking...
