MouseSystems Serial Mouse not work on LiveCD

[NorthCS]

Binary package hint: casper

I have PC with 3 button serial Genius Mouse on COM1, this mouse use MouseSystems protocol. When I boot in Ubuntu LiveCD mouse not work, because in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in InputDevice section uses PS/2 mouse (I have only PS/2 port without PS/2 mouse), but if I edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf (change Protocol and Device Options) and restart X-Window System mouse is work.

xorg is responsible for its own mouse detection, even on the live CD.
