Right - Ubuntu blacklists it and it works. Fedora doesn't blacklist it but 
it is not a problem with the distro shipped kernel - somehow. The problem 
happens only when using vanilla kernel on Fedora - not sure what's going 
on there. 

On Mandriva it was handled in a similar way, before usbmouse was
disabled from the kernel (no reason to have it in a "normal" kernel).

Yep, and so the patch to make it dependent on EMBEDDED still makes sense.
