I swapped the Logitech wireless mouse for a Microsoft Intellimouse optical,
and this time had slightly more success.   If I run moused and tell XFree86
to use both /dev/psm0 and /dev/sysmouse, it still dies with the fcntl error.
However, if I'm only using /dev/sysmouse, it works perfectly.  The kernel has
uhci but not ehci compiled in, so it must indeed be using the low-speed
driver, not ehci.  If I don't run moused but just tell X11 to use /dev/ums0,
it still fails with the fcntl error.
