You need to set CONFIG_USB, CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD, and
CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT
in your .config file. If you choose to build them as modules (which I
recommend), this will result in usbcore.ko, ohci-hcd.ko and usbhid.ko
for a 2.6.6 kernel. Load these and you should be fine.
Or, install kernel-image-2.6.6-powerpc and hotplug.
I'm getting gnarly kernel panics with 2.6.6 during boot up. I checked
the system logs--apparently the kernel panics before logs can be
written. And I can't see the four leftmost characters in my console,
so I'll do my best at transcribing the error: (the ... represent
characters I can't read since they're off screen)

Little help?
