Of course it will tell you that. /dev/sysmouse is *created* by moused!
In order to test the mouse, you would have to run it using the *real*
port of /dev/psm0.
4.02 of X *broke* the mouse, so I kind of doubt that your were actually
running 4.02. Or maybe sometime in the last month the port changed? I
know that when I upgraded from 4.01 to 4.02 the mouse stuff broke
completely.
What were you using in your X config file? There is no way to diagnose
your problem without that information.
