The last version of MGR I saw supported only Microsoft mice, but it
should be fairly simple to take the selection-1.2 mouse driver (which
is based on the X mouse driver, and supports most mice) and fold it
into MGR, if someone hasn't already done so. That would give you
MouseSystems, Logitech, and Logitech busmouse support, in addition to
Microsoft.

tytso@tsx-11.mit.edu has been working on adding support for various
multiport cards to the Linux serial drivers. He could probably give
you list of 'em....
