Hi Jens,

>1. My mouse won't work too *argh*

2. that is why you couldn't login with your user (i presume not root) :)

X absolutely need a mouse pointer :(

iirc you should have this entry in your XF86config-4 file:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Configured Mouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/psaux"
        Option          "Protocol"              "PS/2"
EndSection

Check that /dev/psaux was well created, should look like:
# ll /dev/psaux
crw-------    1 root     root      10,   1 Mar 15  2002 /dev/psaux

(if you build your own kernel check that its support is in the kernel)


 and that gpm is not running (would not disable X to start but well trouble
the behaviour of cursor).

Hth,
    Joel

PS: can you also mentioned which kernel are you using
