I have tried IMPS/2 but all the mouse does is move to the lower left of the
screen no matter in which direction I move it, same goes for the other
protocols available, the mouse doesn't work at all or it just randomly moves
around the screen. cat /dev/usb/hid/hiddev0 works but with x the mouse
doesn't work correctly, I have tried a different mouse, but go the same
problem...

Thanks anyway...

Section mouse in your XF86Config

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "USBMouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "Protocol"      "IMPS/2"
        Option          "Device"        "/dev/input/mice"
        Option          "ZAxisMapping"  "4 5"
EndSection

You have also to compile your kernel with usb support.

Test it with a cat /dev/input/mouse0. It have to be created at boot time,
and
when you cat it and move the mouse, you have to see some strange chars.

Good luck
