I'm wondering if you have the kernel's USB modules loaded, working and 
running? Similarly the udev daemon.

what do these command have to say?
chris@imogen ~ $ ls /dev/input/*
Something very similar to:-
crw------- 1 root root 13, 64 Apr 18 16:30 event0
crw------- 1 root root 13, 65 Apr 18 16:30 event1
crw------- 1 root root 13, 66 Apr 18 16:30 event2
crw------- 1 root root 13, 67 Apr 18 16:31 event3
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 63 Apr 18 16:30 mice
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 32 Apr 18 16:30 mouse0
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 33 Apr 18 16:30 mouse1

Also:

chris@imogen ~ $ ps aux | grep udev | grep -v grep
root      1005  0.0  0.2   1712   548 ?        S<s  16:30   
0:00 /sbin/udevd --daemon

What do you get?
