That's because of the following udev rules:
KERNEL="mice", NAME="input/%k", MODE="0644" KERNEL="mouse*", NAME="input/%k", MODE="0644", SYMLINK="mouse"
So, would you livecd guys mind being guinea pigs for LFS? You should be able to just shift the "SYMLINK" argument up a line.
Actually, wouldn't it be changing the SYMLINK line to read like so?
KERNEL="mice", NAME="input/%k", MODE="0644", SYMLINK="mouse"
I've never used /dev/mouse - I always thought /dev/input/mice was the correct way of pointing apps at the mouse...is there an app that expects something else?
Xorg's default conf file (usually) after running Xorg -configure. And, I believe if you don't have a conf file and just try to run 'startx', Xorg will also try to use /dev/mouse.
