Here's what I took from your config (grep MOUSE)
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_X=1024
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_Y=768
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSE=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=y
# CONFIG_MOUSE_SERIAL is not set
# CONFIG_MOUSE_INPORT is not set
# CONFIG_MOUSE_LOGIBM is not set
# CONFIG_MOUSE_PC110PAD is not set
# CONFIG_MOUSE_VSXXXAA is not set
# CONFIG_USB_MOUSE is not set
# CONFIG_USB_IDMOUSE is not set
Here's what I have in mine (Usb and serial mouses/mice/meece work here;
the ps2 option used to work until the port got blown away :-o.)
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_X=1024
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_Y=768
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSE=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=y
# CONFIG_MOUSE_SERIAL is not set
# CONFIG_MOUSE_VSXXXAA is not set
CONFIG_USB_MOUSE=m
# CONFIG_USB_IDMOUSE is not set
Next compile I had better sort the serial mouse (It runs, but barfs once
a day, and I have to restart gpm)
The old ps2 port is being dropped - it's now a 'legacy' device (= a
museum piece). Dmesg threw out this
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
That's telling you, isn't it? You have also told xorg to look in
/dev/psaux for the mouse. You have a usb mouse?
I don't like the agpart stuff
[drm] Loading R200 Microcode
agpgart: Found an AGP 3.0 compliant device at 0000:00:00.0.
agpgart: Putting AGP V3 device at 0000:00:00.0 into 4x mode
agpgart: SiS delay workaround: giving bridge time to recover.
agpgart: Putting AGP V3 device at 0000:01:00.0 into 4x mode
being repeated like as it is. That sounds like a private war going on
somewhere. I don't like the SiS 5513 chip either, but my via chipset is
probably worse.
Lastly, try it with the boot options "noapic acpi=off" (hit 'e' on
grub's opening screen) and see if that cures anything.
When you fix all that, post again.
