You'll need if it is a three button with wheel the IMPS/2 driver specified.

My XF86Config sections that pertain to the mouse functions look like this:

Section "ServerLayout"
         Identifier     "Server Layout"
         Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
         InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
         InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
         InputDevice    "DevInputMice" "AlwaysCore"
EndSection


Section "InputDevice"
         Identifier  "Mouse0"
         Driver      "mouse"
         Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux"
         Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
         Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
         Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"

# If the normal CorePointer mouse is not a USB mouse then
# this input device can be used in AlwaysCore mode to let you
# also use USB mice at the same time.
         Identifier  "DevInputMice"
         Driver      "mouse"
         Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
         Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
         Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
         Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
EndSection

This is from the SuSE Yast2 SaX2 configurator.  I have a USB mouse plugged in 
thru a USB to PS/2 adapter.  So the first section works on a PS/2 mouse and 
the second will work on a USB mouse.  SuSE covers the bases on their default 
install.  I've had the touchpad or touchpoint on laptops working 
simultaneously with plugged in USB mice.
