It's still a problem in 8.04 my solution is the folowing:
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf make sure you have the folowing section:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
EndSection
if /dev/ttyS0 does not work try ttyS1
You know for a operating system as serious as ubuntu a 4 year bug like
this doesn't realy look good
