 Read the manpage for moused(8),
 and look for the -a option.  Any flag
 you want could likely be added to
 /etc/rc.conf.
 
 If you're running KDE, or Gnome,
 and maybe some other WM's, they
 can do something similar for you.
 In Gnome, it's Main Menu | Applications
 | Desktop Preferences | Mouse

For generic X Windows, use xset(1) to control this sort of thing --
the KDE or Gnome menu enties probably rjust run xset behind the scenes
for you anyhow. eg:

% xset m 2 200

Make the mouse accelerate to twice as fast if you move the pointer
more than 200 pixels.

Cheers,

Matthew
