Sit Heel Speak,
Here are the entires:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
Option "XkbLayout" "us" #xkeymap0
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" #mouse0protocol
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
#Option "Emulate3Buttons"
#Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" #scrollwheel
As an experiment, I used the Wizard to install the USB mouse and then re-copied the sections.
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
Option "XkbLayout" "us" #xkeymap0
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" #mouse0protocol
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
#Option "Emulate3Buttons"
#Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" #scrollwheel
EndSection
Does not look like anything changed. As usual, the USB mouse had not been detected when I opened the wizard.
Again, thanks for your continuing interest in this issue. Your help is appreciated.

@Béèm and @WhoDo:
It's really a bit beyond my experience level at present, but...
I notice, with regard to touchpads, there is a synaptics driver in
/usr/X11R7/lib/xorg/modules/input
and so, I wonder if either of you have, thereby, a third "InputDevice" section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the identifier "Synaptics Mouse" as described at:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=7955
or else, if you don't have it, could one simply add such a section, e.g.
| Code: | Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics Mouse"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "TouchpadOff" "1"
EndSection |
(the Option "TouchpadOff" "1" line is described at
http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man5/synaptics.5.html
)
and put
in /etc/rc.d/rc.local to activate the driver...as mentioned at
http://www.puppyos.net/forum/azbb.php?1166117515
(note: it looks like the standard xorgwizard which comes with 2.15CE does not contain the modified choosemousefunc() which is included in the modified xorgwizard, available at the above URL)
(but I don't think it should be necessary, if you simply modprobe the driver and then hand-edit xorg.conf as above)
Does this solve the problem?
***(EDITED: then again...you might need to add, to
Section "ServerLayout"
in xorg.conf, the line
| Code: | | InputDevice "Mouse0" "AlwaysCore" |
...replacing Mouse0 with Mouse1 if that is the number your touchpad makes go crazy, on Zigzagcom's test described above...
)
HTH,
SHS

@MStar: this was reported by "bunnydowell" at
http://www.linuxcompatible.org/Microsoft_optical_mouse_problems_t29386.html
to work under OpenSuse 10.1 but I don't know whether it will work under icewm. In /etc/X11/xorg.conf, replace your present mouse InputDevice section with this (make a backup of xorg.conf first, of course):
| Code: | Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse0" ## change to Mouse1 if doesn't work
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Name" "Autodetection"
Option "Protocol" "explorerps/2"
Option "Vendor" "Sysp"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection |
and make sure in
Section "ServerLayout"
there is a line
| Code: | | InputDevice "Mouse0" "AlwaysCore" |
or "Mouse1" if that is the number in the InputDevice section.

Thank you Sit Heal Speak, you are a champion. 
I followed your 'dangerous'  suggestion, but had to add an extra input device in the serverlayout section, the synaptics mouse.
I don't know if extra parameters apply there.
Only after adding this I have no more Touchpad active, but the trackpoint is still active.
BTW, I noticed that /dev/mouse is a symlink to /dev/psaux
Here is my conf now:
| Code: | Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
#InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "AlwaysCore"
InputDevice "Synaptics Mouse"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
Option "XkbLayout" "be" #xkeymap0
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics Mouse"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "TouchpadOff" "1"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto" #mouse0protocol
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
#Option "Emulate3Buttons"
#Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" #scrollwheel
EndSection |

Sit Heel Speak,
It had no effect. Tried it both ways, mouse0 and mouse1, didn't matter.
Thanks for the effort.

@mstar
Can you post your "ServerLayout" section?
In fact can you post in the same way as I did, so including the "InputDevice" section as well?

Yes, please post the whole stretch as Béèm requests. It goes between the markers left-square-bracket code right-square-bracket and the same with /code in between, no spaces. I see that Dougal has now posted an update to puppyserialdetect, just within the last few hours. Perhaps this holds a key clue.
What is the result of the Zigzagcom test, referenced above?
Have you tried plugging-in the mouse-receiver not through a USB port, but rather into a PS/2 port using a USB-to-PS/2 adapter (little plastic thing about an inch-and-a-quarter long, sold locally in the color green for $1.50)?

I don't have a USB to PS2 adapter with my mouse. Will pick one up next time I'm out and report the results. Might be a few days, though.
Thanks again.

Do you really have this file on your disk?
| Code: | | Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" |
Strange as I have

/dev/input/mice exists on my Puppy 2.15CE, when I have both a ps2 and a cordless usb mouse plugged in.
@MStar: if you change the number in
Identifier "Mouse1" ## change to Mouse1 if doesn't work
then you must change the number to match it, in the corresponding line in the "ServerLayout" section, in other words change
InputDevice "Mouse0" "AlwaysCore"
to read
InputDevice "Mouse1" "AlwaysCore"
Sorry for not making that clear.

@Sit Heal Speak,

Logic then.
