It seems that there is a problem with detection/auto loading of modules (udev 
or hal ?).

I had to put some modules in /etc/modules :
psmouse
thermal
battery
ipw2100
snd-hda-intel
...

All od them would not be detected and loaded automaticaly as before...

psmouse loaded, hal and X can see my mouse.
