--- Comment #3 from Niclas Zeising <zeising@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Bob Frazier from comment #2)

xf86-input-evdev is not needed for regular keyboard and mice, unless maybe =
if
you have some special configuration in your xorg.conf files.  However, if y=
ou
have custom options enabled in xorg-drivers, maybe xf86-input-libinput was =
not
installed (if you are using ports or building your own packages).

Currently, xorg-drivers only pull in the following:
xf86-input-keyboard
xf86-input-mouse
These are used if you don't have evdev, but might need some configuration
xf86-input-libinput
should be used in the common scenario

xf86-video-scfb
xf86-video-vesa
These are used if you don't have any graphics driver installed, or the grap=
hics
driver fail to attach to the GPU hardware.

The default configuration you get if you are using the default package set =
from
FreeBSD.org are working out of the box.
