yes,

perhaps this demonstrates that i don't understand what i was
supposed to do, but i had trouble with a usb mouse when i got
a new machine in october.  my solution was to set
	mouseport=usb
in plan9.ini and modify termrc to use this for mouse startup
rather than the traditional code:

[...]
	if(test -f /dev/mousectl && ~ $mouseport ps2 ps2intellimouse 0 1 2 usb){
		if(~ $mouseport usb)
			usbstart
		if not
			aux/mouse $mouseport
		# parse vgasize into fields
		vgasize=`{echo $vgasize}
		if(! ~ $"monitor '' && ! ~ `{cat /dev/user} none)
			aux/vga -l $vgasize
		if(~ $accupoint 1)
			pipefile -dr /bin/aux/accupoint /dev/mouse
	}
