Oh, a few more things.  /dev/psaux is now deprecated, so you should 
probably change this to be /dev/input/mouseX.

Also, you might want to play a bit with the ordering of your module
loading (assuming you are using modules) in /etc/autoload.d/kerne-2.6,
so that psmouse is loaded before usbhid.  This should make mouse0 and
mouse1 your trackpad & stick, and mouse2 your USB mouse.  This way,
you have the option of not connecting the USB mouse, without having X
complain about a missing device.

In this setup, you would having something like:

Section "ServerLayout"
	Identifier     "XFree86 Configured"
	Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
	InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
	InputDevice    "trackpad" "CorePointer"
	InputDevice    "stick"
        InputDevice    "usbmouse"
EndSection
