Hello Björn, I had the same problem with SID. First of all I had to update /etc/modules: (Commented entries were working with kernel 2.4) #usb-uhci uhci-hcd #input #usbkbd #keybdev psmouse mousedev e100 #ide-scsi usb-storage
With kernel 2.6 PS/2 mouses have an own kernel module. My active mouse section from /etc/X11/XF86config-4 looks like this: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection I hope that's all (i'm not 100% sure).
