you have a PS/2 mouse, and it's on interrupt 12. Try disabling that. /dev/mouse indicates that you're providing your mouse to X via gpm, so you'd have to check your gpm config to see what it thinks is your mouse (see /etc/gpm.conf). Having your modem on ttyS1 probably means nothing. -- Don't make Godzilla mad!
