I'm using Vice 3.6.0 r41412 on Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia Xfce edition with Nvidia Graphics Card GeForce GTX 1050. I have compiled and installed the GTK3 version of Vice.

I load the game Star Trek The Rebel Universe which is a mouse driven game.
I go to Preferences>Settings>Input devices>Control port
and set the Control port #2 to Mouse (1351)

I press [Alt] + m to grub the mouse pointer. When I resume the game the mouse pointer moves only when I click the right mouse button and it goes only in the upward direction. No other movement of the mouse affects the mouse pointer.

    I've tried to use port #1 but in this case there is no movement of the mouse pointer at all, no matter what I click or move.

    The reason the mouse does not work correctly is because it is a joystick game, please change control port 2 to use a joystick and then change joystick port 2 to use numpad or keyset 1, or keyset 2, or a host joystick if you have it.

    My bad. You're right it is a joystick only game :(
