Bug#363363: xserver-xorg: Lost ability to use external PS/2 mouse

[Rob Bochan <robslaptop@gmail.com>]

Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.0.14
Severity: important

The transistion into version 7 of xorg has left me without the ability to
use the PS/2 mouse I have attached to my laptop (HP Omnibook 6000). I was
able to use both the synaptics touchpad and the attached PS/2 mouse at any
time before the new packages.
