Mine, which works on Mandrake 8.1 is:

Section "InputDevice"
  Identifier "Mouse1"
  Driver "mouse"
  Option "Protocol" "imps/2"
  Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
  Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
  Option "Buttons" "3"
EndSection

BUT, I just thought of a potential "gotcha" since you have two meeses 
defined...

What does your "ServerLayout" section of XF86Config have?

Mine is:
Section "ServerLayout"
  Identifier "layout1"
  Screen "screen1"
  InputDevice "mouse1" "CorePointer"
  InputDevice "keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
  Option "blank time" "10"
  Option "off time" "20"
EndSection

Maybe you are missing an InputDevice entry in your ServerLayout section?
