mine came with the adapter too but I wanted to get it working usb just
because :P and it works just fine :) all ya have to do is make sure the
right modules are loaded, most are compiled in the stock 2.2.17-21mdk
kernel as modules, so just do read the HOWTO and load ones ya need, add
them to /etc/modules so there loaded on boot, and make sure ya create a
device for it mknod /dev/input/mice c 13 63 and bam ya got usb mouse :)
