In Config.in of DirectFB, ps2mouse is only limited to x86 and x86-64. But the
ps2mouse driver also works with usb mouses and so is not only limited to PC
architecture.

That's probably correct. But wouldn't you better use the linux_input driver for
an USB mouse?

I first thought that I needed the linux_input driver, and configured DirectFB
with linux_input support but without ps2mouse support. And the mouse I
connected to my board wasn't detected. So I tried the ps2mouse driver and it
worked.

Maybe I missconfigured something in the kernel... I don't know.

Using a USB mouse with the linux_input driver works for me. Of course you need
to have support for USB input devices enabled (CONFIG_USB_HID). But anyway, if
the psmouse driver in DirectFB works on non-i386 platforms, then I see no
reason not to allow users of buildroot to enable it.
