I just purchased a Toshiba M30, which I'm trying to dual-boot.

First problem:  I have X pretty much up and running, except for the
mouse.  The trackpoint is dodgy, so I need to be able to use the USB
mouse with it.  I have gone through several different approaches I
found through Google, but nothing works, and so I think I'm missing
something related that is not obvious.

This is the error message in XFree86.0.log:

(EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/input/mice
        No such device

Permissions are 20666 for /dev/input/mice, which should work (as far
as I know).

This is the relevant portion of XF86Config-4:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier          "USB Mouse"
           Driver                   "mouse"
           Option                   "CorePointer"
           Option                   "Device"          "/dev/input/mice"
           Option                   "Protocol"                "ImPS/2"
           Option                   "Emulate3Buttons"    "true"
           Option                   "Emulate3Timeout"    "70"
           Option                   "ZAxisMapping"               "4 5"
           Option                   "SendCoreEvents"     "true"
EndSection

The ServerLayout section contains the line:

InputDevice "USB Mouse" "SendCoreEvents"

I've tried any number of different combinations of device names with
no success.

I'll entertain any ideas.

TIA
