Dude. I'm telling you. I had the same problem. This isn't a X or device issue. You don't have USB compiled into the kernel or running as a module. Just make sure you have all the UHCI stuff checked and do a make clean all modules module_install install (or something to that effect). Then reboot.

The mouse is not rechargeable, it works fine on Windows and 2.4 kernel (I'm using it right now) and the problem is with the 2.6 kernel protocol. If I could tell the psmouse (PS/2 Mouse Kernel Module) to use ImPS/2 protocol for every ImExPS/2 (My Mouse's Protocol), I think it would be done. I've
