Try using a USB to PS/2 adapter; moused(8) knows how to handle
Explorer mice attached to the PS/2 port.

The correct way to fix this is to ditch ums(4) and teach moused(8) how
to operate directly on a uhid(4) device, so we don't have to duplicate
logic (and bugs, and bug fixes) in moused(8), psm(4) and ums(4).
