Here is a quick cheat sheet to get you going. I'm not expert, but this
should help you:
Install the X server. By default the file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 should
have lines like this:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
Look for it, be sure it is in there. Debian drops this in even if you
choose psaux.
Make usre /dev/input/mice exists
$ ls -l /dev/input/mice
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 63 Mar 24 2002 /dev/input/mice
Install the hotplug package if you have not already
apt-get install hotplug
Try starting X.
If it does not work tell us let us look at your XF86Config-4 file.
Cheers!
