Hi,
I have a compaq proliant and always the same problem. my mouse is not working. as it never worked on the builting ps/2-port i installed a usb -> ps/2-adaptor (HID) . this was working fine, until i had to reinstall my server. since then: doesn't work at all. i indicated also pci=bios-irq for a working mouse....

what is the output from /sbin/lsmod? There should be the following modules for a USB Mouse
mousedev 5556 3 hid 24676 0 (unused) input 5760 0 [keybdev mousedev hid] usb-uhci 26316 0 (unused) usbcore 78176 1 [hid usb-uhci]
To me your XF86Config looks fine. I had similar problems on RH8/9 because of missing modules like HID.
Configuration: -------------------- ps/2-mouse (generic, 2-button) connected to a port on the usb-hid-interface.

....seems to look good.....i have also connected the keyboard on the hid-interface, and this works fine....its just the mouse....as it is a very old machine, i installed fedora with pci=bios-irq, which worked fine, when i installed this machine for the first time...
Okay, what happens when you disconnect and reconnect the mouse? Please check it with dmesg | tail -n 20 when you removed the mouse and when you reconnect it.
thx anyway, was an idea, or perhaps i have overseen something..? Roger
