Odd thing is that when I did this switch the first time it worked. Maybe 
it's because there was already a PS2 mouse on the machine to which I 
moved the PS2 mouse the first time. The second time, when I moved the 
PS2 mouse back to the other machine, there had been a power outage, and 
thus a reboot without a PS2 mouse connected.
