Us, quoting from "make menuconfig": "The data available through /dev/psaux is 
exactly the same as the data from /dev/input/mice."
So you are still using a multiplexer, that gives you the data of all mice 
together. Try using one device of /dev/input/{mouse,event}*, if there is one 
for your PS2 mouse.
