/dev/input/mice is supported on Nubus Macs, maybe you need something like
/dev/adbmouse with the BusMouse protocol?
Thanks Michel - I've made some progress ;-)

In dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 I selected ttyS0 (serial mouse) -
there was no adbmouse available?  Nor did I see anywhere to configure
BusMouse protocol.  However, I am at least getting something like
Gnome appearing with v.weird colours and no mouse movement.  I can't
switch terminals with Apple + Fn but Tab/arrow keys seem to take me
around the desktop but not in any way that's useful.

Where do I go from here? Is there another way of setting up adbmouse
and BusMouse protocol?

TIA
