If you want the ability to use either a USB mouse or the internal PS/2
touchpad, then you're going to have to do a little bit of hacker to the
XF86Config.tpl file to setup the second mouse.  You actually configure
it as 2 separate mice.  Just make sure you have the second mouse with an
option of "SendCoreEvents" in your ServerLayout section.
