Strange to see this because my "MS IntelliMouse Explorer 3" works at the usb
port with the settings from above. 

http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/USB_MOUSE.html and
http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/USB_KBD.html says that "This is mostly
useful for embedded applications or simple keyboards". What for hardware do
you have?

I would say yes because than the kernel maintainer have a better chance to
recognize it but perhaps you can wait a little bit to see if he answers
here.-)

See you, Attila
