Bob already answered the time problems, so I'll pick up the mouse one...
gpm 1.13-4 General Purpose Mouse Interface
xbase 3.3.2-2 Local clients and configuration required by
xserver-svga 3.3.2-2 X server for SVGA graphics cards
and my M$ Intellipoint mouse works just fine
>From /etc/X11/XF86Config:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "BusMouse"
Device "/dev/gpmdata"
Emulate3Timeout 50
Emulate3Buttons
EndSection
>From /etc/gpm.conf
device=/dev/psaux
responsiveness=20
type=ps2
append="-l a-zA-Z0-9_.:/root/00-2630-6670-77 -R"
Try that & see how you go.
Of course make sure you have PS/2 mouse support in the kernel
somewhere (module/compiled-in/whatever)
