I have several FreeBSD installs (including laptop with > touchpad) using XFree 4.02 and moused. You need to declare > /dev/sysmouse for the device, and auto for the protocol. On my desktop system with a Logitech PS/2 mouse, XF 4.0.2 worked with moused, but the mouse pointer seemed to move very oddly (sort of a choppy motion) and clicks sometimes didn't register. I killed moused and switched XF to PS/2 protocol and it works fine now. There's definitely something going on between moused and XF 4.0.2.
