I'm using MS mouse which is USB, optical with scroll button :)

Here is what I have in my xorg.con :

Section "InputDevice"

     Identifier  "Mouse1"
     Driver      "mouse"
     Option "Protocol"   "Auto"
     #Option "Protocol"    "MouseSystems"
     Option "Device"      "/dev/sysmouse"
     Option "Buttons" "5"
     Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

EndSection

I think you should have moused_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf to be able 
to use sysmouse as option in X.

Hope this helps :)
