Thanks for the tips guys. I had a close look at both suggestions.
After further experimentation I found that this line in rc.conf:
usbd_enable="YES"
was causing the mouse pointer not to work in Xorg. Simply removing
that line, all works perfectly. So my end-result rc.conf is:
defaultrouter="192.168.0.254"
hostname="tweety.i"
ifconfig_em0="inet 192.168.0.5 netmask 255.255.255.0"
sshd_enable="YES"
# added by xorg-libraries port
local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d"
hald_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"
I found that adding the moused start just adds more confusion,
especially because moused is already started automatically because of,
I guess, the hald.
I just hope I'm not missing out on not having usbd_enable.
Kinda confusing stuff, I'm sure it's smoother in 7.x or 8.0.
