For the snapshot packages I was told to use pkg_add -u first, and after that
install the preferred package. That worked.
For the terminal I will check out the ports mailing list.For the touchpad, I
got the point, thanks.

The XFCE terminal? Might want to check ports@. No idea if this is an
upstream change or in the port itself.

The snapshots are a moving target given the impending release of 6.3.
Are you using `pkg_add -Dsnap firefox`?
You might also need to grab the most recent build of -current if
libraries were bumped. A dmesg would tell people if you're up to date
or not.

You probably need a custom Xorg config, but if there is regression in
functionality I'm sure reporting the delta and a dmesg would be
helpful. Personally I've seen some improvements, but there were initial
regressions that were reported and I believe resolved or worked
around.
