Hi,

I found this while I was searching for the same thing.
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=42213

FWIW, I have also seen this happen in some of my systems.
For me, they happened with PS/2 mice.

One happened today on a PII-450 440BX box when I installed
FreeBSD on it (4.7-RELEASE); it never run FreeBSD before, so
I cannot tell if older versions of FreeBSD or XFree86 works
with it..

The other happened on a Toshiba Libretto M3 notebook
(Pentium-133) some time ago.  IIRC, it looked as if the
upgrade of XFree86 to 4.2 caused the break, but I didn't
look carefully at that time.

In either cases, directing X to use /dev/psm0 instead of
/dev/sysmouse resulted as a good workaround, just the same
as how you mentioned it in the PR.

I had been running many boxes with varaiaty of -STABLE
versions and up-to-date XFree86's of the times, and only
noticed this problem on the above two boxes.  These are two
of the oldest hardwares I use with PS/2 mice.

Hope it adds some data points.
If this gets solved, please let me know too.
