btw, its a SERIAL mouse, PC/AT refers to your keyboard and there is no
such mouse that is attached to the PC/AT keyboard port AFAIK...
anyway, add this to your xorg.conf (or XF86config in /etc/X11 directory )
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0" # ttyS0 pertains to COM1 , etc
Option "Protocol" "Microsoft"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
EndSection
