I believe its the wrong mouse Protocol thats causing the problem. I would suggest you to : 1. Re-configure the mouse setting from /stand/sysinstall 2. Try changing the protocol to "MouseSystems" or "MouseMan" I do not have a FBSD box here and hence cant re-collect how i setup mine, but its something close to the above. Good Luck ! Ph.
