Many thanks Matthias,

I am still getting the same errors when using the keyboard driver and
the mouse enabled in rc.conf.

I have just noticed in the Xorg log file this:

(II) /dev/fb0: Detected FFB2+/vertical, Single-buffered.
(II) /dev/fb0: BT498 (PAC2) ramdac detected
(II) /dev/fb0: Detected Creator/Creator3D

[drm] failed to load kernel module "ffb"
(II) SUNFFB(0): [drm] drmOpen failed
(EE) SUNFFB(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed. 

Is the ffb module required?
