I believe I said in my first reply to you to include information relating to the PCI probe phase of the kernel boot sequence. It MAY hold information relating to why the card isn't detected.

You'll end up with the same problem. The mouse driver is different between the two versions, as is the de0 driver... You'll have to either back-port the bus-mouse driver from -current to -stable or back out the de0 upgrade in -current.
