    _I_ have two mice configured and it works well. Red Hat has, ever since
    7.1, configured two mice. One day I bought a USB trackball, plugged it
    it and it worked. Without rebooting or even restarting my session.

    Currently I'm using a Logitech optical mouse. Yesterday I had problems
    with X not recognising my keyboard - it had been working for days, then
    no-go. So I plugged in a USB keyboard (nicked from my Netvista) and
    plugged it in. The keyboard didn't work, but the PS/2 mouse plugged into
    it came up as a second USB mouse.

    I could use either one, and both at once.

    Two mice work together fine.
