Have you compiled MTRR support into your kernel? That may or may not
help performance.

Take a look at the generated /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file -- my guess is
your mouse section is missing, or something similar. The following works
for my mouse, Logitech's cheapest three-button/wheel mouse:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Single"
Screen "Screen0"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" # <-- you need a line like this
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice" # <-- and a whole section like this.
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
