I've just done this, but I'm running 2.4.2, cant say if it will work with a
debian kernel 2.2.19, give it a try !
Recompiling the kernel I selected,
Support for USB
Preliminary USB device filesystem
UHCI Intel PIIX4, VIA support,
USB Human Interface Device (HID) full support
USB mouse support
then recompile the kernel, make-kpkg kernel_image
Install the kernel dpkg -i ....
edit /etc/fstab and add
none /proc/bus/usb usbdefs defaults 0 0
none /var/shm shm defaults 0 0
make the mouse in /dev ie
mkdir /dev/input
mknod /dev/input/mouse0 c 13 32
the edit /etc/X11/XF86Config "pointer section to point to /dev/input/mouse0
Reboot, and hopefull everything works.
Hope this is of some help....
Derm.
