Ok, so you get some characters when you read /dev/input/mice and

I don't get any trash chars when i move my mouse and red light is off!
If i unplug and re-plug the mouse, i get red light turned on for just
a second and if i try to move the mouse, it gets off again.
What does work?

Ok, your original message wasn't clear to me. Many mice have a "two-stage" LED that goes dim after a few seconds (not completely off though). And I thought that "X" was a translation for the non-printing characters.

Did you set CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=y or =m? If =y, try rebuilding as a module. This would let you remove and reload the driver (rmmod psmouse; modprobe psmouse) to see what happens.

Also, is this a real PS/2 mouse (not using a USB to PS/2 adapter), or do you use a KVM switch?
