In your case, this is a problem with Ben H's precompiled kernels for the
Pismo. I've asked that he add a USB option that our mouseconfig program
needs until we release an "official" set of kernel files to add Pismo
support and some other things..
For now, just make sure your /etc/sysconfig/mouse looks something like:
MOUSETYPE="imps2"
XMOUSETYPE="IMPS/2"
FULLNAME="Universal Serial Bus Mouse (USB)"
Your /etc/sysconfig/keyboard should look something like:
KEYTABLE="mac-us-std"
KEYBOARDTYPE="adb"

No, see above.
