Wanted to use my keyboard/mouse combo for my new shiny used Power Mac G5 as I recognized this type of mouse "Microsoft Comfort Mouse 4500" does not play well with MorphOS. I also tried it on my Powerbook G4, where it behaves the same. MorphOS 3.9 on both machines.
The USB-stack acknowledges the device as mouse, HID-class device but it still does not work. It works however on the same machine with Linux (Ubuntu MATE 15.10).
It's not a big deal, as I could simply buy another mouse which does work under MorphOS. But maybe it can be made to work with some minor tweaks which I am not aware of?
The mouse in question:
