I had similar problems with my Inspiron 4000 but got it to work with the
following config:

,----[ /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 ]
| Section "InputDevice"
|         Identifier    "Mouse0"
|         Driver        "mouse"
|         Option        "Protocol"              "MouseSystems"
|         Option        "Device"                "/dev/gpmdata"
|         Option        "ZAxisMapping"          "4 5"
| EndSection
`----

,----[ /etc/gpm.conf ]
| device=/dev/psaux
| repeat_type=msc
| type=synps2
`----

ciao
