moused can't be expected to handle reattachment properly, it looks like
the standard entry in usbd.conf doesn't have the necessicary detach
entry. This entierly untested line may do it:
detach "kill `cat /var/run/moused.$(DEVNAME}.pid`"
Actually, while I'm looking at the file, I notice that the USB ether net
entry is kinda bogus too. It should probably be:
device "USB ethernet"
devname "[ack]ue[0-9]+"
attach "dhclient -pf /var/run/dhclient.${DEVNAME}.pid ${DEVNAME}"
detach "kill `cat /var/run/dhclient.${DEVNAME}.pid`"
Otherwise, if you have a system with multiple devices using dhcp you're
screwed when you remove one of them.
