Is it a USB mouse? And if so, how easy is it to configure a usb mouse
(or any USB device) in linux as of date? Just curious :)

I figured out the mouse settings. Now it works quite well. I had to
disable gpm to get it to work. Also I had to create a device file
/dev/ttyS0 as it is a serial mouse. I did that using 'mouseconfig'
script.

# FILE:  /etc/sysconfig/mouse
FULLNAME="Microsoft - IntelliMouse (serial)"
MOUSETYPE="ms3"
XEMU3="no"
XMOUSETYPE="IntelliMouse"
IMOUSETYPE="ms3"
DEVICE=/dev/ttyS0


# FILE: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "Mouse"
    Driver "mouse"
    Option "Protocol" "IntelliMouse"
    Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
    Option "Buttons" "3"
    Option "Emulate3Buttons"  "no"
EndSection

Thanks
Ravi
