Have a look at /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Make sure that you have this:
InputDevice "USB Mouse" "CorePointer"
Make sure it isn't commented like so:
#InputDevice "USB Mouse" "CorePointer"
and you should also have this:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "USB Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
EndSection
Not sure if this applies to you but if you install Knoppix without the USB mouse attatched it you have to edit XF86Config-4.
