crazy mouse

[Santhosh Joseph]

I believe its the wrong mouse Protocol thats causing the problem.

I would suggest you to :

1. Re-configure the mouse setting from /stand/sysinstall
2. Try changing the protocol to "MouseSystems" or "MouseMan"

I do not have a  FBSD box here and hence cant re-collect how i setup 
mine, but its something close to the above.

Good Luck !
