So I think we've conclusively established that the source is the mouse
itself. Some further digging on the model number tells us that under
certain resolution settings some Logitech G5 mice had some skipping
issues. This occurred when set to the lower resolution modes. The tests
would be to find out firmware the mouse has installed, and what
resolution it is running at. You might try installing the
"logitech-applet" package and running "logitech_applet --get-res" to see
what the resolution is. Then if it isn't already set to 800 use the
"--set-res=800" option to put it there. That might help.

about. It's a very serious disease and it interferes completely with the
work. The trouble with computers is that you 'play' with them! ---
