Hi, I remember now about EHCI not handling USB1 devices. It seems to
be doing something though... It seems more likely now when I think
about it that the system has USB Legacy Emulation enabled in the bios.
Does that account for why when I moved the mouse or pressed keys it
generates "events". Perhaps someone with PS2 knowledge could give
some insight into what is happening? It definitely looks like the
events are coming through, it just looks like there not being directed
to the right place.
