During Install of fc4, hardware probe could not find Microsoft optical IntelliMouse.

3-button mouse.

What does /proc/bus/input/devices look like with the mouse that it didn't find?

I swapped hard drives so as not to mess up my install.  I swapped the mouse back
to the offending mouse. On three successive install attempts, the mouse that
wasn't recognized the other day was recognized all three times. Close Bug.
