    I'm running 2.6.10 and mine works ok, so I can't help trouble shoot your
    specific problem. But, I seem to recall that mousedev and some other
    module need to get added to /etc/modules to get loaded on boot. Take a
    look at your /usr/share/doc/kernel-image-2.6.8/* stuff for tips.

    good luck
