Hi,
I've installed a 2.4 Debian sarge inside VMWare, and it worked perfectly, until I've installed VMWare Tools. I did it like this:
In Windows-VMWare-Install VMWare Tools
Switch to textmode (ctrl-alt-f1)
do the installing
Switch back to X (ctrl-alt-f7)
And it worked. I could start vmware-toolbox. Now after a reboot, X wont start anymore.
This ist the log:

I allready tried making a new config file with the XF86config tool, and also tried to manually edit the file. If I change the /dev/input/mice line under input to /dev/input/mouse0 or /dev/psaux nothing happens, and the log isn't affected (red lines remains the same)
Btw as I installed Debian, the max. resolution/refresh rates were 800x600 at 60hz, and the XF86config tool didnt affect that matter. I had to manually put in "1600x1200" into the config file, and then it worked perfectly.
What could I do to make X run again?
edit:
Ok fuck it...
Solution: Start the kernel module for USB mouses:
modprobe usbmouse
--> Problem solved
So you have an usb mouse? I am having the same problem here but i have a ps2 mouse. It worked during my install of gentoo64 but all of a sudden it stopped working. Do you have any idea what might have happened? Thanks for any help.
