+ If you are using an older xorg.conf serveral config lines are
+ no longer needed and will generate warnings when X is started.
+ RgbPath will cause X to fail to start, remove it from your config.
+
+ Server 1.5.3 also really wants to configure it's input devices
+ via hald. This is causing some issues with moused and
+ /dev/sysmouse. There are a couple of options for how to deal
+ with it.
+
+ 1. Add Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" to your ServerLayout section.
+ This will cause X to use the configured kbd, mouse, and vmmouse
+ sections from your xorg.conf
+
+ 2. Don't use moused. If you want it to work with addon usb mice
+ set this in rc.conf:
+
+ moused_enable="NO"
+ moused_nondefault_enable="NO"
+
+ I'm working on fixing hald or the mouse driver or both.
