I think the 2.6 way to do this is with udev instead of devfs. I had
already tried that (see my original email) and, in fact,
/dev/input/mouse1 disappears if I unplug the mouse and it re-appears
if I plug it in again. But, still, mouse movements can only be
observed through /dev/input/mice, not through /dev/input/mouse1 after
unplugging.

Hmm...
