You're misunderstanding a few things. There are no "release packages"
for any release of FreeBSD. What you have on the install discs are
just "snapshot" packages built from the ports tree as it happened to
be at the time of the release was made. If you want to see the newer
mouse driver in ports help the xorg developers by testing their
experimental tree. There's nothing to be done about the 9.1-RELEASE,
the packages on the install discs will not have any experimental
content.
