It is software on mine. I can boot the new kernels and it is jumpy as |
| 17 |
crap. It is really slow to respond and when it does, it just jerks all |
| 18 |
over the place and is difficult to click on links and buttons. I can |
| 19 |
reboot with the old kernel and it works fine, just like it should. Same |
| 20 |
mouse, same computer, same everything except a different kernel. I can |
| 21 |
repeat that process and get the same results every time. |

Also, it even does this when my system is not real busy. I do run |
| 24 |
folding but it will do it even when folding is not running. It is also |
| 25 |
slow to switch desktops and such as well. I can even out type the thing |
| 26 |
when booted off the newer kernels. |

My system: AMD 2500+ Barton CPU, 2Gbs of ram with 2 80GB IDE drives. |

1GB of swap with none being used. 19 inch Gateway monitor running |
| 30 |
1280x1024. My mouse is a optical Logitech model M-BJ58. |

This may be hardware for some but it is kernel here. I just built a new |
| 33 |
one, linux-2.6.27-gentoo-r7, and plan to try it next to see if I get the |
| 34 |
same results. If I do, I plan to stick with the old |
| 35 |
linux-2.6.23-gentoo-r8 until it no longer supports my hardware or |
| 36 |
something makes it not work anymore. |
