In my experience when the console is spammed by mouse detach and attach events, it's because the mouse is defective, usually because the cable is wearing out and developing an intermittent fault. Switch to a different mouse, even if the mouse appears to work ok, because it will probably get worse. Another reason for these messages is because you're using a KVM switch that performs the switch operation by disconnecting/reconnecting your USB devices, but I assume that isn't the cause here. Suppressing the errors is probably a bad idea, in that case how would you know your mouse is developing a fault until more serious problems arise? Better to be notified early so you have time to deal with it. -ken
