When it works it says:
Feb  6 00:53:18 erdos kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:02.0-1, assigned address 2
Feb  6 00:53:18 erdos kernel: input: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [Microsoft Microsoft IntelliMouse � with IntelliEye] on usb2:2.0

lsusb output:
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 045e:0025 Microsoft Corp. IntelliEye Mouse
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

lsmod reports that usbcore, ehci-hcd and usb-ohci are all loaded.

A complete diff of the two kernel config files is below... I note that the
original one doesn't mention CONFIG_USB_MOUSE, but I think this is a red herring
as the menuconfig description says of the driver "This is almost certainly not
what you want".  Other than that there seems to be nothing suspicious.

I've tried plugging and unplugging the mouse, rebooting, restarting hotplug,
and putting it in a different USB port to no avail. 

So what am I missing here?

Cheers,

Cameron.
