Hm, IIRC I read s.th. about not using the usbmouse module. I am using
uhci                   26160   0  (unused)
hid                    19396   0  (unused)
usbcore                65792   0  [uhci hid]
mousedev                3928   1

I believe that 'mousedev' is what you are missing.

It should just be
Driver "mouse"

Are you sure you enabled the right mouse configuration? This should be
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

Yes, this is (or on my system was) not necessary. It is already there.
