Nope, /dev/input/mouse<n> is still the emulated Intellimouse Explorer
PS/2 thing, but without the multiplexing.

You can also get mouse packets via /dev/input/event<n>, if you load the
'evdev' module, but those are in a different format (read: sane,
extensible, orthogonal), rather than trying to pretend it is a PS/2
port with an Intellimouse.  I don't know the status of user-space
drivers that support 'evdev' packets.
