Have you tried this:
emerge -1a $(qlist -I -C x11-drivers/)
I have upgraded my kernel before without rebuilding these but they
are small and only take a few minutes. Your mileage may vary.
The mouse drivers should be in that list. If not, then something
is missing in your set up.
As I think I explained, I have re-emerged *everything* installed that
had "x11" or "xorg" in its name. And the mouse driver was definitely
there.
That usually works so I'm clueless. I assume the mouse works somewhere
else? I think you mentioned it working somewhere so I'm out of ideas.
Sorry to persist, but the drivers usually have "xf86-*" in their name not
"x11" or "xorg", e.g. xf86-input-evdev.
(The category of those packages is of course x11-drivers/ ; i.e. x11-
drivers/xf86-input-evdev)
Other than that could it be a udev issue and some permanent rule for a USB
type of mouse, which you should remove and restart udev? Don't know, just an
idea.
That's what I was thinking. I get this list using part of the command I
posted earlier:
[IP-] [ ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-173.14.22:0
[IP-] [ ] x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.3.2:0
[IP-] [ ] x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard-1.4.0:0
[IP-] [ ] x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse-1.5.0:0
[IP-] [ ] x11-drivers/xf86-video-nv-2.1.17:0
Mine has xf86-* drivers as well. OP, do you have your setting in
make.conf correctly? Mine looks like this:
INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev"
I do NOT use hal so your settings may need to be different but you do
need the line tho.
Other than this, back to clueless.
