Yes -- ehci is for USB 2.0 and uhci is for 1.x. Since (I assume) the
mouse isn't USB 2, the uchi module will be needed. I didn't catch the
start of the thread, but if you are using a 2.6 kernel you will need
mousedev and a usb mouse module (I quite forget it's name) loaded.

If you use modconf (or edit /etc/modules) to add the modules you need,
then they will in future be autoloaded at boot time.
