I has mouse problems with FC3 (yes, it's connected through a KVM). 
 There are several protocol= values you can pass to the kernel.  The one 
that I ofund helped was protocol=bare, other values are exps (supposed 
to be for a specific mouse) and imps (couldn't find any information 
other than the listing).
