I've got similar problems here and I've noticed some interesting quirks - the buttons and scroll wheel on the USB mouse seem to function, though the cursor isn't moving...
PS/2 Microsoft 2-button mouse and a Genius USB Powerscroll (not optical) mouse have both been connected since a fresh Ubuntu Feisty install earlier today. During install, I tried a few USB mice (all Genius Powerscoll) - one would move vertically, with slight horizontal movement only when wiggling the mouse around randomly. Another mouse gave horizontal movement only, with slight vertical movement when wiggling. I tried these mice with another PC running WinXP - they work fine there - but I've no other Linux systems here to test with. Things are the same after install and reboot, though I noticed the mouse stopped moving altogether at one point. Strangely, I can use the scollwheel and click the two buttons on the USB mouse, though only the PS/2 mouse can move the pointer. Is something up with the way the X and Y movements are being fed or read through the USB, perhaps? 'lsusb' reports:- Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0458:0018 KYE Systems Corp.
