USB-Mouse-Bug in 2.4.16-8 ?

Dear Mailing List,

I've discovered that even if I insmod (or modprobe) the proper USB modules
for my 2.4.16 kernel, and if I use the USB mouse afterwards,
"lsmod" reveals that the modules seem to be "(0) unused" - despite the USB
mouse is in action!

Users of the 2.4.18-kernel affirmed same kernel behaviour.

If I rmmod the USB modules, they subsequently allow to be removed from
kernelspace, and the USB mouse cursor , ofcourse , stops instantly -
despite he was just in use.

Is this a bug or a feature? :-)

Yours, Alex
