I had a similar experience on my laptop... kudzu detected a "new PS/2 mouse"... I said yes, go ahead.. blah blah ... next thing I know, my USB attached wheel mouse stopped working.... I now have to use the touchpad on the laptop.
I'm in the same boat as you -- It's rather annoying to have to logout of X and re-run the mouse configuration when ever I dock my machine.
You can use redhat-config-mouse to switch between your USB device (external mouse) and your PS/2 device (built-in touchpad). But I'm *positive* that RH9 allowed me to use both at the same time.
I didn't have any luck finding this in Bugzilla last I looked... nor did I file it (bad Ben, bad, bad!)
