Ok. You've finally answered my question. > The device I'm using is the "QVS USB to PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse > Adaptor," model number USB-PS2Y. The cable looks similar to the > following: > /---------------\ /--wire-----[PS/2Mouse] > [USB]---wire------------|Solid Plastic |-< > \---------------/ \--wire-----[PS/2Keyboard] As I said, I know what it is. I have one I use for a portable ps/2 keyboard. Testing a real USB mouse now works fine. I'll go drag my adaptor out and test it. Mine is just labelled "USB-PS/2".

PS/2 - USB Interface Adaptor, rev 1.10/1.03, addr 2, iclass 3/1 uhci_device_intr_transfer: not done, ii=0xc3c17020 kbd1 at ukbd0 ums0: MCT Corp. PS/2 - USB Interface Adaptor, rev 1.10/1.03, addr 2, iclass 3/1 ums0: 3 buttons and Z dir. The light on the adaptor flashes when I move the mouse or press buttons, but indeed, I get no input.
