By the way, I asked this in my previous message:> 4) Take a look at the output from dmesg (or your /var/log/everything.log). Are you seeing any error messages re: a serio device? Particularly something along the lines of "bytes dropped" or something. If so, please post it here.Did you check that out and/or see anything like I described?
Sorry about forgetting to do that. I think that for the test to be effective one has to do a fresh boot with the optical mouse connected, launch X, wiggle the mouse a bit, terminate X, and then examine the contents of the kernel ring buffer. So, what happend is I put it off to do a fresh boot and then forgot.
Anyway, upon conducting the test, there was one interesting entry in the kernel ring buffer messages. It was this:
psmouse.c: Exploer Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing away 3 bytes.
I suspect that that has something to do with the problem, although I have no idea what. If you have any thoughts, I'd love to hear them. Thanks.
