this should be used if your using a USB mouse/trackball, not a normal
PS/2 mouse/trackball. You need to be sure the drivers for the mouse
are loaded if it's a USB. I have heard that the package 'hotplug' can
make this very easy(haven't tried it myself).

for my system I use these drivers:

CONFIG_USB=y
CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y
CONFIG_USB_UHCI=y
CONFIG_USB_HID=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_X=1024
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_Y=768


i think the module names are mousedev, hid, usb-uhci for systems that
are module based. your system probably uses UHCI as well.

if your using a mouse connected to the PS/2 port change your X config
to point to /dev/psaux and it should start working.
