The privilege separation code in xenocara has a compiled in list of devices that are permitted to be opened; of the uhid devices it only currently includes /dev/uhid0 through /dev/uhid3. You can either a) update the list and recompile the X server b) symlink it to a different name that's already in the allowed list but that's not used by OpenBSD (e.g., "/dev/ttyJ0") c) ???
