My USB mouse is working fine on my AMD64 system.

Can you run
grep mice /etc/X11/xorg.conf
which should return
        Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

What happens if you unplug the mouse and then plug it back in again?

Otherwise, I'd suggest it's an oddity in the chipset:
system-config-network must poke it in such a way that it detects USB.

Can you run
tail -f /var/log/messages
(as root)
and then run system-config-network (from another window), and see if
anything gets added to the end of /var/log/messages?

Are you fully up to date on patches?

What does
/sbin/lspci | grep USB
return?

Thanks,

James.
