19 try cat /dev/input/mouse1 and move the stick. If you get some weird
20 output on your console, its the right device, but since you now use
21 evdev it should be something more like /dev/input/event1, bit this can
22 change.
23 Therefore you should od an cat /proc/bus/input/devices, there you can
24 see your mouse.
25 in Xorg.conf you should remove Option Device and add option "Name" "the
26 name shown by cat /proc/bus/input/devices". Also protocol "event" could
27 be helpful
