Really a question for berryboot people.
The mouse is hardware accelerated and uses the mailbox interface, so a missing (or incorrectly permissioned) /dev/vcio might cause this problem.

You are probably using a too old kernel.
If it's a Pi 2 you can upgrade it by going to the Berryboot menu editor, pressing "add OS", and accepting the Berryboot update when prompted.
Upgrading a Pi 1 is more complicated if you want to keep existing files.
