I solved this by following the note within XF86Config-4 about doing an md5sum on the file when updating, and by doing a modprobe mousedev.
I was trying to set the mouse device stanza to specify my /dev/psaux and PS/2 but It turns out I wasn't really updating the file. Thanks to everyone for the help. Ed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
