Hi!
I think everybody who installs FreeBSD for the first time have this problem.
you shoul create a link between your port and your mouse. So that if your
mouse is
connected to COM1 then
ln -sf /dev/cuaa0  /dev/mouse
COM2
ln -sf /dev/cuaa0  /dev/mouse              ... and so on
PS/2
ln -sf /dev/psm0  /dev/mouse
Good luck
