While I don't know what's going on with your mouse, I can interpret the 
debugging messages for you.  Some program, the log doesn't say which, is 
asking the mouse to send 255 bytes of data and the mouse is responding 
with more than that.  Maybe if you find out what program is doing this and 
stop it your problems will go away.

It could be some sort of device manager program, like haldaemon, or it 
could be something else.  Perhaps lsof can tell you which process is 
using a file under /proc/bus/usb.
