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!)
