My XF86Config-4 File now reads at the top:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "XFree86 Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "PS/2 Mouse" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "USB Mouse" "SendCoreEvents"
Since my second mouse is a USB type. The scroll function even works =)
Under Input Devices it looks like:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "USB Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
EndSection
Hope this helps anyone who has the same trouble as I can now use my touchpad and usb mouse at the same time.
Cheers
Jason

I used the info below to get my usb mouse working in Mdk 8.2 :

However it doesn't work in mandrake 9, only the usb
mouse works.

Dear Experts...
I have been trying to install a second mouse in my laptop....
It comes with a touch-pad-mouse, and I like a second one (usb-mouse...), but
tools like "mousedrake", Harddrake2, ... found just one of them ...
Can I have both mouses working at the same time ?
Not sure if this will help, but you can try :)
