This has nothing to do with WindowMaker... If the mouse "random flies",
you have not configured it properly. Try moused(8), like:

moused -p /dev/tty00

This will read serial mouse events and inject them in the wsmouse event
queue. You can then setup X to use the wsmouse protocol, instead of
serial mouse.
