Security, I assume. Perhaps you could have pppd talk to a symlink?

I have been troubled with intermittently changed permissions on
/dev/ttyS1, and have been searching for some cron job that might have
caused it. Your comments about the pppd source gave me a clue. I
thought that if pppd changes these permissions, then restores them on
exit, an abnormal exit

On Debian, the PS/2 mouse device is /dev/psaux, not /dev/mouse. You must
also have PS/2 mouse support compiled into the kernel or as a module,
which it seems you already have.
