Well, recently I deinstalled all of my third party apps . . . long story
(some of which is documented on this list) . . . but the short story is that
some were added via the ports tree and others via pkg_add. When it came time
to portupdate, I was having problems and it was brought to my attention
that, among other things, mixing ports and packages may lead to problems.
Also, I didn't do the massive deinstall until after I had portupgraded all
of my packages individually and the mouse/keyboard didn't work with X (it
did at the console). Once this happened I felt compelled to wipe the slate.

So, with no ports/packages installed and starting with a fresh ports tree, I
began installing them one-by-one:

1) cd /usr/ports/path/port
2) make && make install && make clean

I started with xorg. After it was installed, I tried to start X (startx) . .
. no dice . . . no big deal. I created the basic xorg.conf (Xorg
-configure), tried it (Xorg -config xorg.conf.new). X started, but no mouse
activity and ctrl+alt+backspace did not quit X. I had moused enable in
rc.conf and, as I say above the mouse worked (i.e., it moved when asked) at
the console. /usr/ports/UPDATING says that some mouse issues were cleared
up:

"20090124:
 241   AFFECTS: users of x11-servers/xorg-server, sysutils/hal
 242   AUTHOR: rnoland@FreeBSD.org
 243
 244   sysutils/hal has been updated and should now properly detect
 245   mice for use in Xorg.  Use of AllowEmptyInput should no longer
 246   be needed for most users and moused should now work fine."

But, as I say, I have no mouse under X. So, I try adding:

Option      "AllowEmptyInput" "off"

in my xorg.conf and "Hey! We gotta mouse!"

I just rebooted and the mouse still works in X, but just before rebooting I
disabled moused (in rc.conf -> moused_enable="NO"). So, adding the above
line to xorg.conf helped with/without moused. Note that prior to this whole
portupgrade deal I was running 7.1-RELEASE without an xorg.conf, put with an
older xorg.

At this point, I'm not upset b/c everything seems to be working fine. Just
curious what might be going on. Thanks for you time. Below is my dmesg.
