It worked fine under 2.6.0-test2-mm2 and 2.6.0-test2-mm1. With some
further investigating, it seems that usbmouse is not loaded at startup,
just hid. Following your suggestion, I removed both and just loaded hid
and the mouse works ok, for a short period of time. Eventually it stops
and I have to rmmod hid and reload load it. Sometimes I get a decent
amount of time (maybe 30 minutes or so) before it sticks. I'm turning
on USB_DEBUG and will rebuild to see if I get any more helpful info.
