I have this same problem too.  I edited my libvga.conf (I think that is
the filename) and pointed mouse_type to PS2 (which is appropriate) and
now I get no MOUSE_TYPE not set error, but I still can't use the mouse.
(The X version works fine though...)

Thanks for any and all help for us abuse lovers....  (I guess that makes
us masochists...)
