I never enable moused as I don't want a mouse pointer in my terminal. It's
not required for X (as others have said).

For the Device section above, try /dev/psm0 - That's how I use it.
Actually, I have one line each for USB and PS/2. Also, I think the DTR and
RTS stuff is only for serial mice? Are you *sure* you selected the ps2
mouse style during xf86config? The protocol should be "PS/2". So re-write
this with:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/psm0"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
The ZAxisMapping is for your mousewheel. You can also add or fake 3-button
support here. See the comments in your XF86Config file.
