"And the answer is... 42." Turns out I was asking the wrong question. The whole problem about it is that the 2.6 kernels detect my mouse as a ImExPS/2 mouse and not as a ImPS/2.
What I need is to find a way to tell the psmouse module (PS/2 Mouse Kernel Module) to exclude ImExPS/2 as a protocol for my mouse. I even tried to hack (unsuccessfully) the psmouse-base.c file in the kernel, so far, no luck in that. I'll google some more now. If you guys have any idea what to do, let me know.
