Actually you want /dev/ttyS0. The /dev/cua0 devices are obsolete and
might go away sometime. I prefer to set the mouse directly to the
port it's on, so when I run gpmconfig I say "/dev/psaux" (a PS/2 bus
mouse) for "Where is your mouse?", then "ps2" for "What type is your
mouse?". (If I start using a different mouse port, it will probably
have a different protocol anyway.)
I've put "auto" in /etc/modules, and the psaux driver module gets
loaded automatically.
