That's probably a PS/2 mouse.

That probably means you are using the wrong Pointer 
Protocol. I suggest you edit /etc/XF86Config and
change the Pointer Protocol to PS/2.  If that doesn't 
work, try another Protocol from this list:
BusMouse           GlidePoint         GlidePointPS/2
IntelliMouse       IMPS/2             Logitech
Microsoft          MMHitTab           MMSeries
Mouseman           MouseManPlusPS/2   MouseSystems
NetMousePS/2       NetScrollPS/2      OSMouse
PS/2               SysMouse           ThinkingMouse
ThinkingMousePS/2  USB                Wsmouse
Xqueue


Cheers,
