<div>No I didn't install mdetect. I just installed x-window-system-core, gdm, and icewem. When I run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg all I get are those two mouse options. I'll check dmesg and i'll look in /dev for /dev/psm(?) when I get back home later today. I did try appending
xorg.conf and changing /dev/sysmouse to /dev/psm but then X failed to start.</div>

<div>When I try to install the kbdcontrol package it tells me it depends on keymaps and it doesn't install. I presume that I need the kbdcontrol package for my keyboard?</div>
<div>Also when I try to install kfreebsd-config, it hangs when listening to my ethernet connection after it says done. I'll give you a more formal error message later. </div>
