mouse not working in kde3.5

hi everybody, I'm new to freebsd. I have some experience using linux, but totally new to bsd

the problem I ran into is:
I have a usb mouse and a usb keyboad, both are working in console, mouse is moving, but when I start kde, the mouse just don't move, and I get stuck there, I either have to ctrl+alt+del to reboot or press printscreen to shutdown xorg( is this how it works?)
I installed the kde3.5 like this:
pkg_add -r kde,
pkg_add -r xorg,
edit /root/.xinitrc ,
Xorg -configure ,
cp xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
startx

I have tried many times, rebooted many times, the mouse works in the console but just don't work in kde

type in a console as the superuser:
Code:
#echo 'hald_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
Code:
#echo 'dbus_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf

then reboot your pc.

Or don't. For your machine's daemons' and all humanity's sake
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald forcestart
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/dbus forcestart
will do fine.
