During the sysinstall process of FBSD is where your mouse gets
configured.
You seem to think that mouse is not working just because you can not
get it to work in x-desktop environment.
Does the mouse pointer arrow work when in native FBSD at the command
line?

Your rc.conf file should have this

# for ps/2 mouse
moused_enable="YES"
moused_port="/dev/psm0"
moused_type="auto"

# for USB mouse
usbd_enable="YES"

Do not have ps/2 mouse statements in rc.conf
if USB mouse is plugged into system at boot time.

If mouse works in native FBSD then change your post
subject to say 'mouse config problem in X'.
