Hi
I did as requested and the problem continues. I used the Options Buttons
thing but the problem does not go away.
The mouse keeps going to the bottom left corner and all commands are messed
up.

Here are the relevant parts of the XF86Config file.

# File generated by anaconda.

Section "ServerLayout"
 Identifier "Anaconda Configured"
 Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

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

If I use the following setting, everything works fine, except the wheel of
the mouse.

Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier "Mouse0"
 Driver "mouse"
 Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
 Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
 Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
 Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
