        I'm sorry we didn't respond to this message sooner.
        
        This doesn't really look like a bug in the kernel.  Have you tried
        plugging the mouse into a different port?  If you have another OS
        installed on this computer, does the mouse work under that?
        
        Ben.
        
I don't really use this computer these days but I can answer yes and yes again to your questions.
