Hi,
I've been following the excellent wiki in setting up Arch, and I find the experience quite enjoyable (apart from a few seg faults from pacman). Now I have hit an obstacle: X doesn't detect my wireless Logitech mouse. The receiver appears when I type in lsusb, but Xorg.0.log tells me that "Macintosh mouse button emulation" is being used. I can't get any mouse input in X at all, which makes the window manager useless.
In Ubuntu, Xorg.0.log says:
...
(II) config/hal: Adding input device Logitech USB Receiver
(**) Logitech USB Receiver: always reports core events
(**) Logitech USB Receiver: Device: "/dev/input/event4"
...
And all is well there.
Any ideas?
PS Keyboard works fine, and xorg.conf comes from X -configure.

OK, I somehow managed to get it working after running:
sudo cat /dev/input/mice
in xterm.

Sorry for the triple-post, but after a restart I have total mouse failure again. I am currently writing this without the use of a mouse. Help would be greatly appreciated!

modprobe usbcore
modprobe usbhid
modprobe ohci_hcd
modprobe ehci_hcd
if any of that helps, add those modules to your rc.conf / mkinitcpio.conf
