I'm using Elecom 3-button (wheel-with-middle) USB mouse on
my iBook (3GB harddrive model) with XFree86, which I built
myself.

How do you configure your OF settings of input/ouput device?
And what is the model you use?  Just to set input device to
"keyboard" which combines ADB/USB should work.

Well, unplugging USB conecter losts keyboard/mouse on my
machine, too.  I heard that connecting USB devices via USB
hub might solve this, but I have no USB hub, so I can't
check if this is true.

USB keyboard/mouse is useable once the above problem is
fixed.  My /etc/XF86Config for iBook is available from here.

I might have applied the patch from Tsubai to XFree86 source
when I built it.  I'll put the XFree86 server binary If you
want to try, or dig the patch from mails at that time.
