Option to disable moused?

[Daisuke]

It would be nice to have an option that disables moused.
Can you please let me know if is possible to disable it with an option in Sysctls or Tunables?

I think that moused_ums0_enable="NO" in a sysctl will disable it just based on a 2 minute Google search. No promises though. :P

I believe I prevented moused from consuming the 15kbytes of RAM it was using by setting USB legacy mouse support = DISABLED in my motherboard BIOS. Many motherboards will emulate a USB mouse even if one isn't attached if the setting is enabled.

No loader nor sysctl can do that.

You could maybe do that editing /conf/base/etc/defaults/rc.conf

moused_nondefault_enable="NO" , or something
