USB mouse recognition

[Beat Rupp <beat.rupp@gmx.net>]

I installed a fresh Woody system (01/03/2002) on my laptop. The install 
went smooth. But:

Is there still no way to tell Debian to setup the /dev/input/mice 
device(s) automatically? Sure, I can do it by hand, but this has to be 
done by the installer if it detects an usb mouse (or if that's not 
possible at install time, let the user manually set an usb mouse type). 
The corresponding XF86Config-4 file already contains the required lines 
so that the usb mouse can act besides an internal touchpad.

Am I missing anything here?
