Well, after trying a whole bunch of devices, it seems that /dev/ttyd0 
works. The mouse is recognized. Now only two X problems remain:

(1) Nothing appears in the X Window, even when press the mouse buttons. 
Is there some extra setup file or something I need? Right now even to 
logout I must do the CNTRL+ALT+BKSPACE sequence.

(2) The screen seems "mach bandish". I am using the exact same XConfig
file I used under Linux. Under Linux the screen was blue and clear and
stable, with no flicker. But running now under FreeBDS the screen is 
colorless and filled with mach-band noise. 

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
