Argggggghhh !
And the winner is.... of course Jerry (don't ask about Tom, though).
Here comes the solution:
When ever doing kernel configuration read the <help>.
Sometimes it really <help>s GRRR :-)
Snapshot from the help of
"USB Human Interface Device (full HID) support"
CONFIG_USB_HID:
....
You can't use this driver and the HIDBP (Boot Protocol) keyboard
and mouse drivers at the same time. More information is available:
<file:Documentation/input/input.txt>.
....
And guess what: I had the standard PS/2 mouse support enabled in the
kernel in parallel (for a couple of years, since I installed Linux for
the first time :-) ).
In germany we have a nice saying for that:
"Wer lesen kann ist, klar im Vorteil".
(Basically the english translation would mean something like RTFM
but in a more polite way :-) ).
Thanks for the help and friendly words, guys. :-)
