Hi
I have had success on my hardware with this setting:
# The working configuration. The mouse daemon in /etc/rc.conf
# was dsabled.
#
# Section "ServerLayout"
# Identifier "X.org Configured"
# Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
# InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
# InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
# EndSection
#
# Section "ServerFlags"
# Option "AllowEmptyInput" "false"
# Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
# EndSection
Turning off the mouse daemon was the key on that hardware.
The same xorg settings needed the mouse daemon turned on on other hardware.
Good luck!
