2.6 kernels use /dev/input/mice as mouse device, for all devices, while 2.4 used this device for usb mouses only. One fix would be to change the XF86FConfig file to use the /dev/input/micebut the x86 kernels should contain the hacky workaround tomake /dev/psaux work also, i don't knoz if this was removed or not recently though.
