Also, since I'm a newbie it just occured to me that if it isn't easy
to make usb/kb live with the mouse going away & coming back that it
might just be possible to unload & load usb/kb when I need it -

Actually, this would be a pain in the butt since I'd have to revert to
my PS/2 keyboard but that may be better then having to restart the
machine when I want to get my mouse back :-)
