USB2, mouse and X

Okay. Got some help from Lawrence (Stewart), who cleaned up my messy 
system, and it seems everything resolved itself, after we recompiled 
world and the kernel, and recompiled also the libpciaccess port.

It seems that the msi pci stuff of the old libpciaccess was interfering 
with the changes in the new kernel.

I can't tell more details, just that it works now.

P.s.: It also improved 2D acceleration massively!
