If you can use the USB mouse in vt(4), then it communicates with port /dev/psm0, which is set by default to communicate with in /etc/defaults/rc.conf:
Rich (BB code): 
592 moused_enable="NO"      # Run the mouse daemon.
593 moused_type="auto"      # See man page for rc.conf(5) for available settings.
594 moused_port="/dev/psm0" # Set to your mouse port.
595 moused_flags=""         # Any additional flags to moused.

See which which port the touchpad has been assigned to: ls /dev/psm* (EDIT alternatively dmesg | grep psm/EDIT), and set in /etc/rc.conf, i.e.:
Rich (BB code): 
moused_enable="YES"
moused_port="/dev/psm1"
See moused(8) manual.

Wouldn't that be:

moused_port='/dev/hmt0'

I am pretty sure it's /dev/psm* a touchpad is communicating with:

From a ThinkPad:
Code: 
 # dmesg | grep psm0
psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0
psm0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
psm0: model Elantech Touchpad, device ID 0

Yes but hmt driver is for HID i2c bus devices not ps2.

I would say have a look at libinput list-devices to see what it detected.

Dear Vladimir kondratyev :
i have download i2c driver from github.com. now other question was below .
1. To prevent double movement on bluetooth devices, following patch should be
applied to bthidd
diff --git a/usr.sbin/bluetooth/bthidd/hid.c b/usr.sbin/bluetooth/bthidd/hid.c
--- usr.sbin/bluetooth/bthidd/hid.c

if (hid_device->mouse && s->srv->uinput &&
uinput_rep_mouse(s->umouse, mouse_x, mouse_y, mouse_z,
mouse_t, mouse_butt, s->obutt) < 0)

Question :
1. sorry, i don't know how to run diff command to do that patch in VT shell. please guide me . thanks.
2. now the driver can drive touchpad . but , how to use touchpad copy and past in the VT shell ? please help. thanks.
 
You may skip the patch. That wont do any harm.
To select an area use tap-and-drag gesture and to insert selected text use triple-finger-tap one. Just like in terminal emulator.

Dear vladimir kondratyev :
thanks for your help . in the VT shell , we can use tap-and-drag gesture, but i don't know how to active triple-finger-tap one. and it't not work. but i find a way to let touchpad left click to select content, the right click to paste it. below was my configure in /etc/rc.conf . maybe help me some one thanks.

#enable mouse in vt shell .with new mouse driver.
evdev_moused_enable="yes"
moused_flags="-m 2=3"
 
Ouch 'triple-finger-tap' is a typo. It is called '3-finger tap'. Just do a tap with 3 fingers at once.
If you redirected middle button to right one, '2-finger tap' gesture is what you need, probably.
