I would try running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 and when it asks about
your mouse, tell it /dev/input/mice for the device (rather than the
default, which is /dev/psaux).  This will also prompt you for a bunch more
info on your X configuration, and will overwrite any existing config (after
asking, of course), so use it with caution.
