I had a close look at both suggestions. After further experimentation I found that this line in rc.conf: usbd_enable="YES" was causing the mouse pointer not to work in Xorg. Simply removing that line, all works perfectly. So my end-result rc.conf is: defaultrouter="192.168.0.254" hostname="tweety.i" ifconfig_em0="inet 192.168.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0" sshd_enable="YES" # added by xorg-libraries port local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d" hald_enable="YES" dbus_enable="YES" I found that adding the moused start just adds more confusion, especially because moused is already started automatically because of, I guess, the hald. I just hope I'm not missing out on not having usbd_enable. Kinda confusing stuff, I'm sure it's smoother in 7.x or 8.0.
