You are not running gpm as well by any chance? Your symptoms sound as though
you might be.
If so you need
Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
Option "Protocol" "IntelliMouse"
And also check that /etc/gpm.conf contains something like
repeat_type=ms3
device=xxxx ; might be /dev/input/mice or
; /dev/psaux - I've no idea
type=imps2
If you are fiddling with gpm, just hop into a terminal and edit /etc/gpm.conf,
restart gpm (with '/etc/init.d/gpm restart') and see if the mouse is happy in
the terminal. Once it is working correctly, edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
and restart X.
