Assuming the baud rate, parity, etc are set correctly for the mouse, it should just work as long as you don't have some other mouse, like a USB device, connected to the system. Have you tried it yet?
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

Certainly, the settings are correctly, I have used the same settings on SLES10/11, and it can use nomorlly!
I have tried the following method, and it cannot use yet.
# In the "ServerLayout" section of xorg.conf. Add these two lines:
Code:
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "false"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
# Specify the correct "Device" and "Protocol" for your mouse in xorg.conf.
I have a scrolling mouse that uses "IntelliMOuse". Here's the section for my mouse in my xorg.conf:
Code:
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
Option "Name" "PLUG AND PLAY SCROLLING MOUSE"
Option "Protocol" "IntelliMOuse"
Option "Vendor" "Sysp"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
EndSection
