Found it on Adam Chapweske's page about emulating PS/2 mice with PIC microcontrollers. Sorry, haven't got the whole URL available but a google search for ~achapwes mouse.html should fill in the blanks. Keyboard - I think most keyboards only use unidirectional signalling, so probably not. Which is a pity. USB - Quite probably. I don't have a USB mouse, but it seems that they send/receive PS/2 format data over the USB interface, so I'd be fairly surprised if it didn't work. /dev/psaux would have to be changed of course, to /dev/input/mice it would seem.
