If you search in the wiki for "mouse", you will find this page:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SerialMouseHowto?highlight=%28mouse%29

Apparently serial mice don't work out of the box, you need to a little
bit of manual work. The instructions refer to Wart and Hoary, not
Breezy, but at least it's a starting point...
