That is not the problem. I get nothing
freebsd:/home/staff/yurtesen#cat /dev/ums0 

its empty

But this is a weird mouse, it has USB connection and then PS/2 connection
also. It doesn't work if the PS/2 connector is not connected! I was
thinking that the mouse maybe shows itself from USB but communicates
through PS/2 connector. The reason I think this is that when I disconnect
PS/2 connector, freebsd still finds ums0 device.
