But you have to do extra to get it to recog the mouse, where as it will recog a serial mouse automatically. Sorry for that possibly misleading comment. No, X does support USB.

It's the X config files. Check out the gentoo users desktop guide for a bit of info and linkage. There's also a super fun auto configurer you can run, where you get to push buttons in answers to questions like what kind of keyboard do you have, and what resolution to run at, etc. Do you have a USB mouse? Cause X wont start if it can't find your mouse. Yeah. It’s the X config files. Check out the gentoo users desktop guide for a bit of info and linkage.

The tricky part is remembering which one is which. Try looking for XF86cfg or configXF86 or something like that. The two are similarly named, but I've always had better luck with the Xserver based config.... 44th post!!!

I suspect xf86config is the culprit, though. I haven't had too many good experiences with it. I suggest you find a couple good sites on how to manually tweak an XF86Config file, and hack it yourself until it works again.
