no problem

for testing at kernel boot

- restart your server
- when the grub loading 5..4..3.. secs appears press ESC
- you'll get a list of installed kernels. press letter a
- you'll get the kernel boot line.. press SPACE one time, add psmouse.proto=exps

test after that several times with each options in order to check the issue and change the proto to the ones listed above.

for testing loading and unloading module

sudo rmmod psmouse
sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps resync_time=10

again, test with the different protocols, if you've catched one that works without problem use it.

If you want to leave this setting as default (i mean if this solves the problem) go like this:

sudo gedit /etc/moprobe.d/psmouse

at the end of the file add:

options psmouse proto=exps resync_time=10

(use the protocol that works for you)

for the debug commands

sudo su - (beware this turns you into real root.. use with care)

and execute the commands listed above

hope this helps
