It seems to me like blacklisting usbhid is a poor workaround... wouldn't that prevent you from using external mice, etc. in the usual way (ie, plug it in and it works)?

Would it be possible for mactel support to continue to provide a patched usbhid kernel module (as I assume the case had been prior to the patch that removed the usbhid dependency?). That seems like an appropriate workaround until there is movement on the kernel end. If the issue is simply getting someone to help maintain a new package, is there any mentoring support available?
