I have these entries (except I'm using /dev/psm0 for the time being) and now the mouse is jumping to the upper left corner of the screen and flickering menus mysteriously. Moving the mouse only causes the flickering. I used another PS/2 connected mouse (wired this time -> MS Optical USB) and it gave the exact same behavior). Any ideas about what to check? It appears my /etc/rc.conf and /etc/X11/xorg.conf (mouse section, at least) look identical to yours. I've been googling, but apparently not putting in the right combo of words (flickering, erratic, etc.). Thanks again.
