If you want to use the ps/2 in a terminal and X I have never been successful, BUT I do have a peudo-solution to the X problem. If you are just looking to use the mouse, use accel. X 2.1+ (You can d/l a free demo from them that is fully functional and takes care of the problem) If you still have a problem with it then try switching terminals quickly and the problem should go away --
Hope this helps
