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.
