No, I am using uhci-hcd, so that's OK.

Except that it wasn't working before - but that must be because I didn't have
uhci installed. I had worked out the need to get hid and evdev installed
before psmouse, when I was first working with a 2.5 kernel, at the time uhci
didn't seem to be a problem.
I recompiled yesterday and, sure enough, it's now working whether I start with
the USB mouse connected or not. There's got to be a better way than this,
though...
