I don’t think QNX4 has support for USB mice. QNX6 does.

Yup, or a USB to PS2 convertor (should they exist? I think they do) for
the output from your Mouse. Or, a regular serial mouse, they work too.

There is support for USB mouses for QNX4, it is a bit cumbersome but it does
work.

You’ll need some beta software and for that you need to join the QNX4.25
beta at http://betas.qnx.com/

Once you have the software you’ll get docs on how to make the mouse work.
