I tried this and it didn't work ( I rebuilt moused , confirmed pentium3 and pentium4 (tried both) were used and installed, rebooted. I also rebuilt + reinstall all of world just in case).

Removing moused from rc.conf fixes the problem (but leaves me w/o usb mouse)

Jun-uk's posting about Xorg-server w/o HAL support did the trick. I'm now working again with moused, usb mouse + touchpad, xorg sans-hal and no crazy refresh/choppiness issues.

thanks!!!

I sense much NT in you.
NT leads to Bluescreen.
Bluescreen leads to downtime.
Downtime leads to suffering.
NT is the path to the darkside.
Powerful Unix is.

I speak for myself, not my employer. Contents may be hot. Slippery when wet. Reading disclaimers makes you go blind. Writing them is worse. You have been Warned.
