After some time, and read new messages ont this mailing list, I find a
solution.
Deactivate hald
deactivate dbus
Option "AutoAddDevices" "Off"
put moused_enable="On" in /etc/rc.conf
....
and....
reboot
and everything work fine again.
I don't known why by using
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald stop
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/dbus stop
/etc/rc.d/moused start
it's not working....
Thank all those help.
Regards.
