OK, so I changed the "PS/2" in /etc/X11/XF86Config to "AUTO"
so now it looks like;

Section "InputDevice"

# Identifier and driver

    Identifier  "Mouse1"
    Driver      "mouse"
    Option "Protocol"    "AUTO"
    Option "Device"      "/dev/psm0"

I am not sure if what I did is what you suggested.
Still now working. Any ideas?
