Nope, my settings are fine. It's pretty weird -  most PS/2 mice have
worked fine for me in the past. The mouse and the PS/2 port are both
fine since it works a dream in windows. If I cannot resolve this, I am
simply going to change it for a USB one.

More suggestions are welcome! (thanks to everyone for the prompt response).
