Looks like it. Had me running in circles the first time.
Do you have a usb mouse? /dev/input/mice is only for usb mice under
kernel 2.4 (under 2.6 its all mice).
If its a usb mouse make sure all the drivers are loaded. you can try to
do cat /dev/input/mice and move the mouse. If it is functioning you will
get gibberish on screen when you move the mouse.
If you have a ps2 mouse use /dev/psaux and serial mouse is in
/dev/ttys<n> with n something between 0 and 3.
The same method with cat on the device file and moving the mouse will
let you know if its generating signals on that device.
