Which revision of the serial mouse is it? If it is a 2.1a MS Mouse, there is a problem with it and the newest versions of X. They are incompatible. I had to send back 15 MS mice and have my hardware supplier dig up 2.0 revisions of the mouse. I believe there is more info about it over at xfree86.or
