My apologies, I misread post #10 - and interpreted "apm" as "amd".

The toadd(8) daemon should not have any impact on USB mice. If it does, it is a problem that should be reported to the port's maintainer, Antoine Jacoutot. His Email address is available from $ pkg_info toad.

The toadd(8) daemon is used to check for media changes occurring in a cd(4) device, and starts toad(8) with an "attach" command when new media is inserted. If you do not have an optical drive, you do not need this daemon.

The toad(8) application requires the use of both consolekit and dbus. Both of these tools need to be configured properly. It's not clear to me that dbus is provisioned per the guidance in its pkg-readme, as you have not provisioned the "session" daemon with dbus-launch.

It appears to me that hotplugd is configured correctly, with the standard scripts that call toad(8) at attach/detach of disk drives devices.
