Have no idea what you are talking about.. What is syscons ?

Ahh.. it looks like you are running BSD, right ?
Try:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "sysmouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
EndSection

In the screen section add
DefaultDepth 16
just before first 'SubSection "Display"'
Change 16 bit subsection so it looks like:
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
If you see monitor not syncing to the signal (though
/var/log/XFree86.0.log shows everything is fine) add
Option "composite_sync" "off"
to the end of 'Section "Device"'. If this does not help change "off" to
"on".
Also, take a look at http://gatos.sf.net/ Note: binary drivers might not
(will likely not) work for BSD, you will need to compile from source.
