Neither mouse will work in the console or in XFree86.
Gigabyte GA-6BXDS = main board
BIOS= AWARD (2A69KG01) ver. 4.51PG
In the PCI/ISA section of the BIOS, a USB setting of: "Assign IRQ For USB: Enabled" (is
set)
There is also a "USB Keyboard Support" setting within the BIOS's "INTERGRATED
PEROPHERALS" section; I have tried this setting to both "Enabled and Disabled".
There aren't any other USB settings in this BIOS.
We are using these devices that are known working devices.
Mouse-1 is: Logitech | model: M-BD58 | optical corded wheel
Mouse-2 is: Logitech | model: M-RM67A | Optical cordless wheel
Our Kernel:
# USB support
device uhci # UHCI PCI->USB interface

Our /dev:

dmesg reports:

uhci0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> port 0xa000-0xa01f irq 10 at device 7.2

usb0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> on uhci0
usb0: USB revision 1.0
ums0: Logitech USB Mouse, rev 1.10/6.10, addr 2, iclass 3/1
Upon booting into the OS, using the above BIOS, and other settings --with either of the
above devices; the mouse is seen on screen, but it refuse to respond while moving the
hand-held device. Should we unplug one mouse (from either usb port) to test the other
mouse, we receive the following on-screen message(s), respectively of the motherboards USB
port we were using:
uhub0: device problem, disabling port 2
uhub0: device problem, disabling port 1
When we plug the devices back in to either of the motherboards mouse ports, there's no
indication at all, from the OS, that a USB device was attached.
Reminder: these devices are in perfect working order.
