The following informations would be useful: 

Debian version
How is the mouse connected - serial or psaux? 
Do you have gpm installed? (Under Debian 2.2 alias potato gpm
configuration is sometimes causing trouble.)

Perhaps you have a look at /etc/gpm.conf and /etc/X11/XF86Config and
tell us the settings. In XF86Config search for Section Pointer.

Besides that: If your mouse is not a serial mouse, ttyS0 would be wrong.
To change a link (as in /dev/mouse -> ttyS0) you need the command "ln"
for link. With "ln -s target linkname" you can create softlinks. Have a
look at the apropriate manpages.


Regards,

Kerstin
