Additional info:
I've duplicated the problem by running redhat-config-mouse within X, or even in text mode with X already running. Apparently it only runs properly when X hasn't grabbed the mouse (even though it does break the mouse set up while it attempts to detect it).
The only way I've been able to run it successfully was to init 3 the box, log into X on another box, ssh into the one I want to change the mouse config, and then run redhat-config-mouse with X display tunneling through the SSH connection. Only then does it probe a PS/2 mouse correctly. Mine is a Genius NetScroll+, FWIW.
Should be fixed with rhpl-0.47-1 and redhat-config-mouse-1.0.0-1. QA, please verify.
Fix confirmed with rhpl-0.47-1 and redhat-config-mouse-1.0.0-1.
