When i try /dev/usbmouse as the device it doesn't do anything at all neither
cat nor X, same goes for the ExplorerPS/2 protocol, with /dev/usbmouse
nothing happens and with /dev/usb/hid/hiddev0 it just jumps around the
screen randomly....
yes it is a Microsoft IntelliExplorer, but I have the same problem when I
use a Logitech 2 button usb mouse...

  What sort of mouse is it exactly ?

 Try the "Device" setting as "/dev/usbmouse" rather than /dev/mouse or
whatever. I find that works a lot better.

 Also, if you have gpm running, try killing that before you run X, and see
if
it makes a difference. I personally don't use the mouse on console, so I
don't
use gpm, but have heard of a few problems like this in the past.

 If you have a Microsoft Intellimouse etc, then you should use "Protocol" as
"ExplorerPS/2" and *nothing else*.

 See if any of that helps.
