emm, the mouse is attached through a powered 4port usb 2.0 hub. That is the 
only way to get it working. If I attach it directly (without loading ohci) it 
does not work (well, only tried with both Transaction Translator options off), 
and if I load ohci before I connect it, it is very very jerky. So jerky in 
fact, that I considered douzends of lockups a day a better alternative.

debugfs is mounted (and usbmon too.):

this is with 'all off', translators off selective resume off.
