Post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
and #lspci
#su
#alsaconf
#alsa (hit tab key twice)

Open a terminal or console and run:

Code:

su
<enter your root password>
alsaconf
alsactl store

When X is not running run this as root:

Code:

xorgsetup

answer the questions and you're mouse will work. Or you can manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf adding this to the right section:

Code:

Section "InputDevice"

    Option         "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

EndSection

Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
--------------------------------

Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
