I updated my xorg.conf to the new options like I was supposed too and had no luck. What did fix it, was removing the -z 4 option from /etc/rc.conf moused_flags=3D"-z 4" I put that in there years ago to get my scroll wheel to work... I guess it isn't needed anymore, and having it there breaks it now..
