If you've got some spare minutes try this: # cd /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard/ # make deinstall # cd /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse/ # make deinstall # cd /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard/ # make install # cd /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse/ # make install For unknown reasons both my keyboard and my mouse now work fine again!
