Have you tried letting sysinstall setup the mouse for you?  Try  
using /dev/sysmouse.  At the bottom of this page they suggest /dev/ 
sysmouse
http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.1/doc/mouse4.html  and it works fine  
for me.  I let xorg auto sense my setup, and here is what is what it  
put for sysmouse:

Section "InputDevice"
         Identifier  "Mouse0"
         Driver      "mouse"
         Option      "Protocol" "auto"
         Option      "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
         Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
EndSection

take a look at xorgconfig
