[parisc-linux] HIL Mouse device cannot be opened

I've followed the HOWTO for using a HIL mouse with
XFree86 on my Apollo 715/33 but get the error message:

xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/input/mice No
such device

when executing startx. Indeed, cat /dev/input/mice
also gives "No such device".

I upgraded the kernel using apt-get - does the 2.4.18
kernel available through this method support the HIL
drivers?

Many Thanks,

James
