I'm not sure how the 2.6 kernel handles the USB mouse. But in RH9 & FC1 I
usually let it auto detect the mouse, then change it manually to a MS
Intellimouse USB. (That of course is in the original install). So the
XF86Config file I have the following and it works great for the Logitech mice
(I use the MX-700 both here at work & at home with the same settings)

Option	    "Protocol" "IMPS/2" <<- This is the important part
Option	    "Device" "/dev/input/mice" <<- Leave it unchanged on your system.
Option	    "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option	    "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
