That's interesting.  I have not tried XFree86-4 since 4.2.0 was released.
Could you please send me your XF86Config?  Which card do you have?  Mine
has a Triden 9660 (I think).  My problem was always with getting the modes
for the 800x600 resolution.

What is this backspace/delete problem?  Do you mean with xterm?  I assume
you have an international keyboard, correct?  I have never used one, so I
can't give much insight there.  You might want to look at your keymap in
both the console and X.  Check out the manpages for 'kbdmap', 'setxkbmap'
and 'xkb'.  Console maps are located in /usr/share/syscons/keymaps and can
be set with the 'keymap' variable in /etc/rc.conf  X maps are located in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb and can be set in the XF86Config using Keyboard
Options.

As for the mouse problem, I have never heard of anything like that before.
