Ok, so psaux support is loaded ok:

Interesting - on my laptop:

 12:        215          XT-PIC  PS/2 Mouse

(and similarly on myu desktop box, too). For some reason it looks like
either no interrupt is assigned to the psaux hardware, or your kernel
isn't detecting it - can you poke around in the bios and see if there's
a setting you can change?
