We have many ways to disable/blacklist psmouse.

One is to edit the /etc/default/grub file:

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

You can type:

module_blacklist=psmouse

or

modprobe.blacklist=psmouse

Save the modifications, run the command update-grub with root privileges as:

sudo update-grub

Finally reboot.
