>Description:
      Logitech Cordless Elite Duo (Cordless Elite + Cordless MouseMan Optical, sharing a common receiver) installed on UHCI USB. Keyboard works, mouse will not. Tried changing every combination of relevant settings (ie /dev/ums0 vs /dev/sysmouse, Auto vs SysMouse, running moused or not, etc) for eight hours and following instructions directly on many, many websites. No success. Had to use included PS/2 adapters to make it respond at all.
>How-To-Repeat:
     Attempt to install the hardware in USB mode. Research suggested that this problem is not limited to this model.
>Fix:
      Until USB mouse support is repaired, you must use PS/2 mode if available for your device.
