Shouldn't matter, should it? Enabling the usb devices in the kernel
and telling... oh, I see, yes it does matter.

(What I was going to say was "telling the X server to use wsmouse",
then realized that that's a little less easy with Xmacppc. But it
should be doing this right by default, I thought.)

Or just pwd_mkdb as root. The point is that editing the flat files
makes no difference, since the system is looking at the (Berkeley)
db versions, /etc/pwd and /etc/spwd.

Probably best to add pwd_mkdb(8), passwd(1), passwd(5), and
passwd.conf(5) to the above recommended reading, as well.
