Thanks for your bug report.
At this moment the xserver-xorg debconf template always manually configures a
mouse with these options in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Normally Xorg should be able to autodetect the protocol of a PS/2 or USB
mouse using /dev/input/mice by putting protocol to "auto", can you try
this.
Please provide the following information:
1. How is your mouse connected to your PC: serial, PS/2, USB, USB wireless, ...
For a USB mouse include the relevant output of the command lsusb on a terminal.
What mechanism does your mouse use: ball mouse, optical, trackball, ...
How many physical buttons and scrollwheels does you mouse have?
2. Open /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the mouse protocol to:
Option "Protocol" "auto"
3. Restart X with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace.
4. Open a terminal and enter the following commands:
$ xmodmap -pp > ~/xmodmap-pp
$ xev | grep button
Put the mouse cursor into the rectangle and push your mouse buttons. Tell us
which button number is reported, e.g. left = 1, scrollwheel up = 4, thumb
button = 8, ...
5. Attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and ~/xmodmap-pp to this bug report.
