When installed FreeBSD 7.2 release with xorg-7.4.1, the X server does

HP Pavilion dv5210us laptop due to the key board and mouse are disabled
somehow.
Some Hot keys (Ctrl-Altr-F#) are working but mouse is not movable and
cannot type in a Xterm.
A quick search should indicate the solution. Xorg prefers using HALD
for hardware access. If the Hal Daemon isn't running, regular
keyboard/mouse input won't work.
You can add the following to /etc/rc.conf to automatically start the HAL
and DBus daemons:
dbus_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"
After adding, use the following commands to start the services:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/dbus start
/user/local/etc/rc.d/hald start
Alternatively, you can add the following line to the ServerLayout
section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file:
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "false"
Hope this helps.
