morpheus kernel: input: USB HID v1.10 Keyboard [MCT Corp. PS/2 - USB Interface Adaptor] on usb1:2.0
morpheus kernel: input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [MCT Corp. PS/2 - USB Interface Adaptor] on usb1:2.1

as the mouse doesn't work, but the HID-Device gets recognized: how will i bring this mouse to life?? do i have to use a specific driver for this?

Assuming you're not talking about console mouse support but of XFree86 mouse support, you should edit your XFree86Config-4 file (usually found in /etc/X11/). Try using the ImPS/2 protocol and the /dev/input/mice input device. Something like this:

Code:

Section "InputDevice"

        Identifier        "Configured Mouse"

        Driver                "mouse"

        Option                "CorePointer"

        Option                "Device"                "/dev/input/mice"

        Option                "Protocol"                "ImPS/2"

        Option                "Emulate3Buttons"        "true"

        Option                "ZAxisMapping"                "4 5"

EndSection
