How did you configure X? Did you build your own kernel? If your mouse is a PS/2 mouse, and you told XFree86 to use it as /dev/psm0, you have to enable it in the kernel (it is disabled by default). Either remove the word "disable" from the psm0 line in the kernel config file and rebuild the kernel, or boot with -c at the Boot: prompt and enable the device. Nadav
