If you have any ideas on what I have done wrong, please mention them. :)
I am running 960612-SNAP for reference.

This is the relevant part of lsdev relating to the mouse devices and seriel 
ports. I have a dumb terminal on cuaa1 but nothing on cuaa0(sio0 I think)
, yet cuaa0 is still busy.

Device     State           Description
---------- --------------- --------------------------------------------------
sio0       Busy            Serial port: National 16550A or compatible
sio1       Busy            Serial port: National 16550A or compatible
mse0       Unconfigured    ATI or Logitech bus mouse adapter
psm0       Idle            PS/2 Mouse


This is what dmesg thinks that psm0 is.:

psm0 at 0x60-0x63 irq 12 on motherboard

Here is me cat'ing the device.

And of course starting X. When I start xdm it comes up beautifully, 
but the mouse sits there frozen on the screen.
