So, it turns out that my USB mouse was causing the lock up... It's
wireless and works with a USB key style receiver.  While FreeBSD
recognized it (as I noticed it deactivate the port after I yanked it
out) it doesn't seem to like to use it and it locks up the keyboard (I
suspect some kinda IRQ conflict.

While this problem is solved, if any one has any ideas how I can get the
mouse to work (Targus PAWM004 wireless) it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jon Bomgardner
