[Techtalk] Upgrading to kernel 2.6-test4 mouse problem

Hi,

 One of my friends upgraded to kernel 2.6-test4 on debian (using SID) and 
eveything boots fine except X fails to start because it says opening 
/dev/mouse failed. For some reason the mouse device doesnt seem to get 
detected with the new kernel and changing to /dev/psaux or /dev/input/mice 
didnt work on XFree86Config file. Tried changing the protocol to PS/2 and 
IMPS/2 still no luck.

Has anyone come across this problem? Thanks in advance

Bud
