That's odd.  I've got it working (for XFree86-4.2.0_1,1) with

    Driver "mouse"
    Option "Protocol"    "auto"    

after it failed with several of the other protocols.

I'm using /dev/sysmouse and moused(8).

/var/log/XFree86.0.log shows it as "auto", with no error msg.
(I wondered if it error-defaulted to "Auto".)
