    This is the "mouse with wheel" -- the wheel is that round little
gray middle button

    Seems like a conflict with gpm.  Try setting gpm first (edit
/etc/gpm.conf); test with it; kill gpm (use "/etc/init.d/gpm stop"); set
up X; test with X.  If everything is OK, you can now read the
FAQ-O-Matic at http://www.debian.org./.  There's a tutorial there about
making gpm and X work together.

    Are you shure you connected the mouse to the correct port anyway?
Ideally the PS/2 port...
