I installed X windows system under Debian 3.1.r2, I typed 'startx' but I got

PreInit failed for input device "Generic Mouse"
Does anyone know how this problem can be fixed? Thanks.
X expects you to have an USB mouse, and to have the appropriate USB
modules loaded. If either of those conditions is false, this explains
the error message. (You don't say what type of mouse you have, or which
distro you're running; if Sarge, I suggest upgrading to Etch unless you
need to stay with Sarge for some reason.)
