I've configured X to accept a usb mouse alongside the ultranav pad/stick 
on my T41, but when using the USB mouse X will go to the screensaver 
after a few minutes as if it's not recognising the mouse events (clicks 
etc) as activity, even though it works fine. any idea if i can fix this?

my X config for the usb mouse:

Section "InputDevice"
 Driver       "mouse"
 Identifier   "Mouse[2]"
 Option       "ButtonNumber" "5"
 Option       "Device" "/dev/usbmouse"
 Option       "Name" "Autodetection"
 Option       "Protocol" "imps/2"
 Option       "Vendor" "Sysp"
 Option       "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
