Add to /etc/rc.conf: moused_enable="YES" moused_port="/dev/psm0" moused_type="auto" Then XF86Config one needs to declare the two virtual buttons for scrolling in the button count: Options "buttons" "5" Options "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Options "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Options "Protocol" "auto" This way the mouse works in console mode via 'moused' and X reads mouse via pseudo device /dev/sysmouse supported by 'moused'.
