As far as i can remember i did compile kernel support for my usb
mouse... and it works fine on the console and in X when plugged in to
the USB port.  I still tried to get this to work on the PS/2 port as you
suggested... 

cd /dev
rm mouse
ln -s psaux mouse
chmod 777 psaux

Removed gpm 

dpkg -r gpm
 
XF86Config-4 pointer inputdevice is as follows

     Identifier  "Mouse1"
     Driver      "mouse"
     Option "Protocol"    "IMPS/2"
     Option "Device"      "/dev/psaux"
     Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"


the mouse still flies around....
I tried as many configurations as i could think of....

mouse-->usbmouse
mouse-->psaux

Protocol IMPS/2
Protocol IntelliMouse

What am i missing out here.

Thanks 
Mitul
