Thanks, this worked. I have a Logitech marble trackball which works in
ps/2 or serial mode and I just switched it, recompiled my kernel to take
out ps/2 mouse support, rebooted, and everything seems to work. No more
problems in kernel 2.2.15pre10 SMP.
I wonder if the ps/2 mouse support in the kernel is not SMP-safe or if it
is just a problem on my machine. I'll stick around this mailing list for
a few days in case someone wants more information on my setup here.
Thanks to everyone who helped me out, you guys are invaluable.
