Hi,
To use xconfigurator u should logon as username "root".If u r logon as rott and still not able to access xconfigurator then check the file permission on fiel /etc/sysconfig/mouse.Or u can use "setup" command or "xf86config command". avi.

Almost an year and still unanswered. Wow!

Check if /etc/sysconfig exists and is a directory.

Check if /etc/sysconfig/mouse exists and is a regular file. Check if the contents is regular text, consisting of shell-style variable declarations andcomments.

Run Xconfigurator as root.
