1) Ive got a optical mouse here, and in KDE it moves in a very choppy manner. Also, KDE ignores the wheel (both scrolling and pressing). How do i fix these issues
2) On my keyboard, it seems like numlock is always on, even if I shut it off. I use those keys all the time and Id like to keep using them on this system.
Help! :(

You didn't say which edition of KDE you are using. Here are some things that might help if you have KDE 3. As I recall KDE 2.2.2 was very similar.
On the kicker panel, click on the icon that looks like a green tower PC in front of a monitor (the tool tip says Control Center). In the left pane, expand peripherals. You will see entries for keyboard, mouse and digital camera. At least, that's what I see.
Click on keyboard | Advanced. There's a radio button for how you want the NumLock on KDE startup.
Click on mouse | advanced. You can adjust speed, acceleration, sensitivity, etc. until you're satisfied.
Hope this helps.
it's probably your X settings.
check your /etc/XF86Config-4 file.
Make sure tha tunder the mouse section it has this:
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
If the Protocol is anything other than IMPS/2 then change it to IMPS/2.
