It sounds like you're using the wrong mouse protocol. You should edit
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 -- and for whichever mouse your Xserver looks for,
you should change the protocol.  The typical one is "IMPS/2", although
others include "ExplorerPS/2" and "PS/2". Try changing them to see if that
has any effect.

I would imagine that's just a front-end to "xset m <foo>". Either way that
command is only useful once the correct protocol is being used.
