Subject: [gentoo-user] OT - Mouse going crazy in gnome

Message-Id: 1161533938.12165.10.camel@camille.gateway.2wire.net
1 About a week ago, my wife's mouse started going wacko in Gnome. When
2 she tries do do something (I haven't been able to track it down to an
3 individual action or sequence), the pointer flies around the screen and
4 generates seemingly random mouse movements. I've looked at
5 her /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and everything looks okay to me. Here it
6 is:

290 Can anyone help us with this? I have no idea what to do. Her mouse and
291 my mouse are identical (optical) and our two xorg.conf files are very
292 similar. I have not seen this phenomenon on my PC though. We are using
293 modular X.
