Check your XF86Config file.

You can still use the Pointer section, but would recommend setting up an
input device section.

If using a particular PS/2 mouse protocol try the bog standard PS/2 first.

e.g.
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier "PS2 Mouse"
        Driver "mouse"
        Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
        Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
        Option "Buttons" "3"
EndSection

see http://www.xfree86.org/current/mouse.html for more information on how
to use it.

Hope you get it going!
