Ah I see. Unfortunately I think I have found the problem. My Razer
Lachesis doesn't work with FreeBSD. It doesn't matter which USB port I
use. I found  this patch though:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=usb/118670

What does "3-20-2008: Fix merged to RELENG_7" mean? Is this fix
available in the FreeBSD 7 (stable) release I'm running? Thanks in
advance!
