Well, What kind of mouse do you have? Is it PS/2, USB mouse, wireless mouse
etc.,?
For starters, you can also use "AllowMouseOpenFail" option in your xorg.conf
and tell the machine to start X despite a failure due to mouse. More
details can be found in 'man xorg.conf'. After that you can configure the
mouse separately knowing that everything else is working.
