I had the same problem and some kind person on the list informed me that the solution is to use the mouse on a sort of rough surface, like the back of a mouse pad. Worked like a charm, hope it works for you. This is a great list!

i've got a g4 mdd dual 1.25 running 10.4.11.

most of the time i get erratic mouse movements and it's hard to zero
in on one spot to click on a button or place the cursor down on a
spot, etc.

i've tried about 3 different usb optical mice on it.

has anyone ever come across this or a fix for it?

thanks
