 Hi:

 FreeBSD 4.8

 I had a problem with my mouse in the PS port so I need to configure a
 mouse in the USB port.

 In sysinstall I can't specify a USB port, how can I enable.

Usb ports are reffered to as com ports, chances are you have the usb mouse in 
com1 or 2 or...

Try to set it to one of these in sysinstall.

Good luck

Um... not by FreeBSD, at least.  MPAREDES needs to make sure the USB
daemon is running by modifying /etc/rc.conf to include

usbd_enable=YES

usbd will automatically handle mice (by running moused, AFAIR, so you
don't need a moused_enable entry in /etc/rc.conf).  Of course, you also
need a kernel with the USB stuff.  GENERIC has it.
