I use same linux setup but with AMD CPU 1.7MHZ. and 256 RAM
About the mouse config I have resolved with add in /etc/vga/svgalib.config
/dev/psaux. I use Wheel Mouse and have activated relatived line, after add 
the mdev /dev/psaux
It work ok.

Here I have use " insmod svgalib_helper.ko " . Linrad it is opened normally.

Now I have problem with Alsa configuration. I have inside two sound, AC97 
and Delta 44.
Probably the setup mixer  it is not  correct
