     You should be using "sysmouse" for you mouse when runnig "X":

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "MouseSystems"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
        Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "TRUE"
EndSection

	/etc/rc.conf.local:

blanktime="60"          # blank time (in seconds) or "NO" to turn it off.
moused_enable="YES"     # Run the mouse daemon.
moused_type="auto"      # See man page for rc.conf(5) for available settings.
moused_port="/dev/psm0" # Set to your mouse port.

	man rc.conf:

                   It should also be noted that while this is enabled, any
                   other client of the mouse (such as an X server) should ac-
                   cess the mouse through the virtual mouse device:
                   /dev/sysmouse and configure it as a sysmouse type mouse,
                   since all mouse data is converted to this single canonical
                   format when using moused(8).
