No, this is not normal.  Hal should always show a mouse, for example:

udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/psm_0'
  freebsd.device_file = '/dev/psm0'  (string)
  freebsd.driver = 'psm'  (string)
  freebsd.unit = 0  (0x0)  (int)
  info.addons = {'hald-addon-mouse-sysmouse'} (string list)
  info.capabilities = {'input', 'input.mouse'} (string list)
  info.category = 'input.mouse'  (string)
  info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/atkbdc_0'  (string)
  info.product = 'PS/2 Mouse'  (string)
  info.subsystem = 'platform'  (string)
  info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/psm_0'  (string)
  input.device = '/dev/sysmouse'  (string)
  input.x11_driver = 'mouse'  (string)
  platform.id = 'psm.0'  (string)
