Turn on the 'USB Human Interface Device (HID)" in the USB support and 'Mouse Support" in the Input Core support. Make sure you do NOT turn on the HIDBP mouse support. The HIDBP (boot protocol) way is intended for embedded systems with resource constraints and is inferior for normal desktop systems. Do "insmod input; insmod usbcore; insmod usb-uhci; insmod hid" Look for bootup messages (dmesg or /proc/bus/usb/devices) for see if the USB mouse got recognised Finally, add these lines in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Section "InputDevice" Identifier "USB Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Buttons" "5" Best regards.
