	FWIW I had similar problems with my FK-760 wireless
keyboard/trackball unit. I spent quite some time trying to bring in the
NetBSD uhid framework which apparently should support mice via uhid. I
think this is the way to go for improved uhid support - but I couldn't get
it to work before I ran out of time and it lapsed into bit rot.
