   I have a USB Mouse from IBM that does the same thing fairly
often, but if I unplug it and plug it back in enough times it will
eventually come up and work normally. I can tell when it is going
to work from the light on the center wheel. I did a little poking
around with it a while back trying to figure out if I could get it
probed reliably, but didn't turn up anything. If anyone has ideas
on things to try, I can give them a shot.
