Trying some random things. Some help is badly needed.

Tried compiling pkgsrc x11 (modular x11). Not able to get it work,
video-intel driver is not compiling saying it needs DRI1. Other drivers
like vesa, intelfb, wsfb tried, but somehow could not start X. Anyway,
whether that would solve mouse problem or not is unclear.

Tried compiling the kernel by disabling pckbc, but that made both keyboard
and mouse of the laptop inoperative.

For same hardware synaptic xorg driver gets used on Linux. Do not know how
to get the same behavior in NetBSD.
