The driver seems to know about the device:

	Product: USB Wheel Mouse
	host/usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 1415
	input: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [04fc:0003] on usb1:2.0

although it looks unhappy about it.  The "interrupt, status 3" message
seems to be a warning about an interrupt when the driver didn't expect
it.  I wonder whether this can be reproduced on an x86 box?

You could also try the CONFIG_USB_UHCI_ALT driver instead of the
CONFIG_USB_UHCI one you seem to be using, and see whether that
makes a difference.

You say this is a known issue for 2.6, but I can't find any details
or discussion about it.  It looks to me like a firmware problem.
The function at 00:00:03.3 (2.6 nicely tells us which function)
claims it's using INTB, but ACPI isn't telling us which GSI that
corresponds to.  Can you ask your BIOS guys about this?

I poked at this again.  The reason this fails is because the
VGA console driver starts up very early and allocates ports
0x3c0-0x3df.  It would be nice if we could figure out a way
to allocate those ports later, after the PCI bridge has been
discovered, so we get the ioport resources correct, but I
don't know a reasonable way to do that.

I just added a patch to remove these messages, so this should
be fixed.

The conf.TXT attachment was empty.
