It doesn't say "logitech fancy protocol mouse" or whatever. If it finds
it on the usb port, it's matching a protocol, and they call that ps/2
IIRC.
What mouse modules have you loaded? The 2 definitive modules are
usbmouse and psmouse (I think). A serial mouse can work off usbmouse.ko,
and a usb mouse off psmouse.ko (here at least). But not all is happy.
If it's compiled in, let's see the config options
