Re: Plug and play USB mice in Unstabble.

I've just been through similar ordeal, I found that hotplug (apt-get
install hotplug) automatically fixed my problem and I only had to edit
XF86Config-4. I also found hotplug causes my system to reboot randomly,
so to get my mouse working I had to:
- modprobe usbcore
- modprobe uhci-hcd
- modprobe usbmouse
- modprobe mousedev
- in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 set your device to /dev/input/mice
I don't have much expertise, but this seemed to work for me, so give it
a go
