Solved mouse problem in FreeBSD 11

Hello all
I have FreeBSD 10.3 and 11.0 installed on Virtualbox (5.1.14 r112924)
Virtualbox settings and rc.conf are identical.

Code:
hostname="bsdserv"
ifconfig_em0="DHCP"
sshd_enable="YES"
moused_enable="YES"
dumpdev="AUTO"

In FreeBSD 10.3 mouse works fine (copy&paste in console), but in 11.0 it doesn't. There is no even a pointer.

Mouse model - USB Wireless Logitech M170

Help me please to solve this problem
 
I was able to replicate your problem. FreeBSD 11.0 uses a new console driver vt(4) and when I switch back to the old sc(4) the mouse works again under VirtualBox.

Try adding this to /boot/loader.conf:
Code:
kern.vty=sc
 
Make sure you set "Pointing Device" to PS/2 mouse in VirtualBox.
