"psaux" not "psau".

Probably because the protocol wasn't set right?

What's the problem:)
Pick a mouse and if it doesn't work run XFree86 -configure as root.
Modify/merge the output as per your taste. I usually make 3 changes
to the file that X produces. I add:
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
and in "Section Monitor",
HorizSync 30-75
VertRefresh 50-85
Change the mouse as necessary .. maybe IMPS/2. And modify the
resolution and/or DefaultDepth in Section "Screen" as necessary.
