I've got both a usb and a ps/2 mouse working...
Try this:
In your XF86Config-4 file, go to the InputDevice section
It should say something like:

Section "InputDevice"
     Identifier  "Mouse1"
     Driver      "mouse"
     Option "Protocol"   "IMPS/2"
     Option "Device"     "/dev/psaux"
     Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Now add another section below it that says:

Section "InputDevice"
     Identifier  "Mouse2"
     Driver      "mouse"
     Option "Protocol"   "IMPS/2"
     Option "Device"     "/dev/usbmouse"
     Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Then at the very bottom of the file you should see:
Section "ServerLayout"
         Identifier "layout1"
         Screen "screen1"
         InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
         InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Add this line right below the Mouse1 line:
         InputDevice "Mouse2" "SendCoreEvents"

Restart your X server and you should be in business.
