My USB loads okay, so I cannot help there.

This is from memory, so please use it as a guide, not gospel!  Too bad
mousedrake and gpm cannot load this way at install :-(

I modified /etc/init.d/gpm and /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (XFree86 v4 config
file).

For gpm, I appended " -M -t ps2 -m /dev/input/mice" to the end of the line
in /etc/init.d/gpm that started the gpm daemon.  I used /dev/input/mice as
the input because it was the only one that worked.

For XF86Config-4, I changed the input device for the mouse to /dev/gpmdata
and the protocol to "msc".

This was on a Dell Inspiron 7K with Kensington USB wheel mouse on a USB hub.

When someone posts the better way, I'll follow it.
