just info that it loaded.
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep mouse:

(II) LoadModule: "mouse"
(II) Loading .usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/mouse_drv.o
(II) Module mouse: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
(==) NV(0): Silken mouse enabled

(don't know what "silken" is)

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep mice:

(**) Mouse0: Device: "/dev/input/mice"
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

in dmesg only:
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice

(I do get messages in /var/log/messages of sync lost from mouse but that 
was a message from yesterday. Not relevant to today's new kernel install)
Today's messages in /var/log/messages just say
<time_stamp> localhost kernel: mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
<time_stamp> localhost gpm[2892]: imps2: Auto-detected intellimouse PS/2

====
I think I know what it is. I'm using an extender that extends the 
monitor/kybd/mouse over a shielded cat5 cable. I plugged a mouse 
directly into the PC and it worked. I bet it's some timing that has 
changed - in something - that this extender can't see for the mouse.
