There may - I repeat, _may_ - be another complication.
Recently (after the first of the year, I think) MS brought out
a new (USB) IntelliMouse Explorer. It looks more or less like the
old one, but works on a slightly different protocol. Basic mouse
functions work under Windows ME with the old driver (the new driver
knows only XP); under Xorg 6.9 some things are off by just a little
bit. For example: trying to grab the corner of a window to resize
it, I'm frequently presented with a window manager (fvwm2) menu.
If, however, I grab about one-sixteenth of an inch above the corner
suddenly the resize works.
