Good evening.
Here's my very first problem with FreeBSD 9.0 i386.
Somehow, mouse and keyboard do not work, when on GDM or XDM. I did read several workarounds, I've tried them all, but still, there's no result. First of all, some Information: Nvidia 9300GS;
When I boot up the machine, no errors occur. But somehow, hald is not started by default (When starting both dbus and hald, it says that dbus is already running, while hald is starting normally.)
My xorg.conf is automatically generated by nvidia-xconfig, I've already installed the proprietary nvidia driver via Ports.
Another solution to this problem was to add AutoAddDevices and AllowEmptyInput to X11; I've been told NOT to use this method, because of upcoming issues. I tried it anyway - no result. - http://forums.freebsd.org/showpost.php?p=170062&postcount=7 (I read the whole article behind the link.)

When I manually start moused, I get the following error:
I'm currently using USB peripherials, they're also correctly shown in dmesg:
I've also tried, like suggested in the following thread, recompiling it by

And, just because why not:
I'm not totally new to UNIX, but this problem definitely seems to be overwhelming. Please help!
Thanks in advance.

When I manually start moused, I get the following error:
Code:

I'm currently using USB peripherials, they're also correctly shown in dmesg:
