Did you find anything in the documentation at the XFree86 website?
I did find mention of the Genius Netmouse (http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/mouse.html).

6.5. Genius NetMouse and NetMouse Pro (serial, PS/2)
These mice have a "magic button" which is used like a wheel or a roller. The "magic button" action is recognized as the Z axis motion. NetMouse Pro is identical to NetMouse except that it has the third button on the left hand side.
NetMouse and NetMouse Pro support the PnP COM device specification. When used as a serial mouse, they are compatible with MS IntelliMouse.
To use these mice as a serial device:
Option "Protocol" "Auto"
or:
Option "Protocol" "IntelliMouse"
To use this mouse as the PS/2 device and the OS supports PS/2 mouse initialization:
Option "Protocol" "NetMousePS/2"
To use this mouse as the PS/2 device but the OS does not support PS/2 mouse initialization (the "magic button" and the third button won't work):
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
To use this mouse as the PS/2 device and the OS supports automatic PS/2 mouse detection:
Option "Protocol" "Auto"

If you do a Google search (see my sig) for your mouse model + XF86Config you may find examples to use.
