I can't be sure what you are describing here beyond some sort of trouble
with a mouse. My guess is you've got the wrong mouse protocol selected.
I'd edit the XF86config file, but I suspect linuxconf or drakconfig or
some such will let you reconfigure this.
If your mouse is plugged into the PS/2 port, try IntelliPS/2 or normal
PS/2 (whichever you haven't selected now). If it's on a serial port,
try Microsoft, Logitech, Mouseman, MSystems.
