:You probably need to compile ps/2 mouse support in the kernel. I would
:think that ps/2 mouse support should be included in the default kernel but
:I guess its not. 

ps/2 support is compiled as a loadable module under Debian's
default kernel.  Try
        modconf
as root.

psaux (port for ps/2 mouse) should be enabled thru
        misc->psaux

This should enable the support for ps/2 mouse without the
need to reboot your system (cool!! :-).


        Just me,
