Configure mouse with GUI ?


I use a debian distribution.
To configure the usb or PS/2 mouse, it must be used the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 command. But this is very unfriendly.
Is there a Graphical User Interface useable to configure the mouse graphically with the Gnome desktop ?
I know that it is possible to configure the speed of the mouse graphically. That is not the question. The question is when I pluged a usb mouse on the usb port or an PS/2 mouse on the PS/2 port and so on.
The Mandrake distribution propose a very friendly graphical way.

Debian isn't Mandrake The tools that exist do not change the xfree config, but load different settings seperately with the interface. The best way is to use dpkg-reconfigure. It may be n00b unfriendly, but it is the Debian Way and not that big of a deal.
