Thanks for your reply.  After I posted the message I figured out that
HID support was required.  That was not the only problem - it worked
(at least it shows up in /proc/...) only when I added the ohci and
uhci drivers.  My mistake, I got idea that only ehci was needed
because that is what my NEC controlled card uses.

Now to set the appropriate entries in xorg.conf.

Thanks again,

Roger
