Post your 'dmesg' output.  Your USB mouse should automatically get
attached as wsmouse0 and it will feed events to the wsmouse mux.
Under XFree86 you can set the pointer to /dev/wsmouse and it should
work correctly.  You will also be able to plug another USB mouse in
and it will "just work", sending events to the same mux.

If this is not working, we just need to see the kernel output showing
the device attachments so we can understand where it is going wrong.

You can quickly test this with:
# cat /dev/wsmouse
<wiggle mouse and watch events spew onto screen>
control-c
