/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/README.FreeBSD says use PS/2 for the pointer
type.

Look at /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/README.mouse.  Section 3.3 discusses
mouse support under FreeBSD.  Section 6.1 discusses the MS
IntelliMouse.  After reading section 3.1, I wonder if
Protocol "IMPS/2" is better?

Does XF86Setup see the mouse?

I have a DEC 3-button mouse, but, in /etc/XF86Config, I have

Section "Pointer"
    Protocol    "PS/2"
    Device      "/dev/mouse"

# ls -l /dev/mouse
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  9 Jul 22  1997 /dev/mouse@ -> /dev/psm0

ls -l /dev/psm0
crw-------  1 root  wheel   21,   1 Mar 15 11:47 /dev/psm0
