I'm using a USB Natural Keyboard and a Wireless Optical Mouse, and it's
working fine.

Here's the mouse section of my xorg.conf file:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier "Mouse0"
        Driver "mouse"
        Option "Protocol" "auto"
        Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
        Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
        Option "Buttons" "8"
        Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"
        Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
        Option "Resolution" "800"
        Option "Vendor" "Logitech"
EndSection

You can use usbdevs (8) to see what devices are connected to your system.

usbdevs
addr 1: UHCI root hub, Intel
 addr 2: USB Receiver, Logitech
addr 1: UHCI root hub, Intel
 addr 2: product 0xa700, Standard Microsystems
  addr 3: Microsoft Natural Keyboard Elite, Microsoft
addr 1: UHCI root hub, Intel
addr 1: UHCI root hub, Intel

The USB Receiver, Logitech, is my mouse.

You should also be able to see the mouse being detected by opening a
terminal window, disconnecting the mouse and then reconnecting it. It
should show up in the terminal window.

This is the part of dmesg that shows my mouse and keyboard:

ums0: Logitech USB Receiver, rev 1.10/29.01, addr 2, iclass 3/1
ums0: 7 buttons and Z dir.
uhub4: Standard Microsystems product 0xa700, class 9/0, rev 2.00/0.00, addr
2
uhub4: 4 ports with 4 removable, self powered
ukbd0: Microsoft Microsoft Natural Keyboard Elite, rev 2.00/2.07, addr 3,
iclass 3/1
