>Description:
When the X server is started and not configuration file is specified or present 
in /etc/X11, the mouse can only be moved horzontally.

running X -configure and the using the created config file usin X -config 
remedies the problem.

X should work without a config file, though.
>How-To-Repeat:
make sure there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, then run startx and enjoy your 
mouse movements.
