A little digging via google and then looking at your list of devices
confirms that /dev/mouse does not exist in Ubuntu

Instead.... you have.... /dev/psaux

Therfore you need to edit this section of the Arachne install script
so that the chmod gets done to /dev/psaux instead of /dev/mouse

echo
echo Updating I/O permissions for /dev/mouse ...
if chmod a+rw /dev/mouse
then
 echo ok.
else
 echo Failed to perform chmod...
 inst_abort
fi


Ok, I done the proposed changes.

Now I run into the next error, in short:

root@ubuntu:/home/user/arachne-svgalib-1.93# arachne
/usr/bin/arachne-ggi-launcher: 3: /usr/bin/arachne-ggi: not found

I thought this was due to needing to run with the frame-buffer dealio.
