Default gdm/gnome/xorg problems

I'm quite new to freebsd FreeBSD and migrate from gentoo and OpenBSD. freebsd FreeBSD is great but I have some problems with gdm/gnome. All the things I have installed with pkg_add from release. When running startx Gnome appears but no input devices can be used. The mouse pointer doesn't even appear and in GDM the mouse pointer freezes at loading.

The rc.conf settings are
Code:
gnome_enabled="YES"
The Xorg log has some sections which could indicate the problem.

Code:
(**) |-->Input Device "Mouse0"
(**) |-->Input Device "Keyboard0"
(==) Automatically adding devices
(==) Automatically enabling devices

(WW) AllowEmptyInput is on, devices using drivers 'kbd', 'mouse' or 'vmmouse' will be disabled.
(WW) Disabling Mouse0
(WW) Disabling Keyboard0
(--) Using syscons driver with X support (version 2.0)
(--) using VT number 9
I will add here some log files and my xorg.conf. By the way with the standard .xinitrc I could startx and use my input devices.

I will start a portupgrade this night and have a look at the USE flags but maybe you find another error in my config. For easy section jump I named the sections as xorg.conf, gdm.log, greeter.log.

xorg.conf

Did a complete portupgrade. Didn't work but could install kde3 which runs smooth, so the problem is gone.
