Just so you know, using the "mouse" driver and "auto" protocol is not the way you want to run a USB mouse in Modular X. You really should try out the evdev driver for full functionality. With evdev, you don't have to specify any options either.

and the strangest thing happened... I went home yesterday after trying
out yet another bunch of xorg.conf configuration combination. I was full
of frustration of my new expensive mouse that I couldn't get working.
The mouse didn't work when I went home but it worked when I got back
this morning.
I have *no* glue how that can happen?
This is the xorg configuration that made it for me (with both mice at
the same time). Just let it simmer for a night before testing:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Logitech MX1000"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Logitech G7"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse1"
Option "Buttons" "8"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 7 8"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
EndSection
Thanks a lot for all of the responses :-)
