Slight modification was made to moused, between 2.2-BETA and 2.2-GAMMA.
It affects PS/2 and Bus mice only.

Although I am not the one who is maintaining moused, I am interested
in your problems.

Would you give us some more details?

Which type of mouse are you using, Serial, bus, or PS/2?
>From which manufacturer?
How the variables `mousedtype' and `mousedport' are set in `/etc/sysconfig'?
How do your `Device' and `Protocol' lines for the pointing device look 
like in `XF86Config'?
