If the mouse is on COM2 (windows), the mouse device should be
/dev/ttyS1, and I'm guessing that driver to be used should be the
"Microsoft" driver like so:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Protocol" "Microsoft"
EndSection
I may be wrong about the driver, since I havent used a serial mouse in a
long time. You could give it a whirl report back if it doesnt work.
