Microsoft Optical Desktop Pro not working in USB

[Bharath Ramesh <bramesh@vt.edu>]

I have a Microsoft Optical Desktop Pro Keyboard and Mouse. When I try
using this using USB I can only either use the mouse or keyboard in
debian. I have had this problems for a long time. I would like to know
if anyone else has had a similar problem. If so did you manage to fix it
and how. I am not subscribed to this list so I would really apreciate it
if you can CC me the reply.

Thanks,

Bharath
