Why are you using such an ancient version of RedHat?  7.1 was just 
released last week.

As for the serial mouse, are you trying to use it under X or using gpm 
on console?  The utilities in the newer RedHats will have things like 
mouseconfig etc that will help you get your mouse working.  They may 
even just find it for you.
