I have just source upgraded world and kernel to 7.0 (Actually 7-STABLE), and I am *not* seeing any jerky mouse issues - in fact the desktop experience is if anything better than in 6-STABLE. My system is SMP (2 CPUs, not dual core) - so SMP could be a factor. However I have yet to rebuild userland (X, Gnome etc) - so it will be interesting to see if that makes any difference. Cheers Mark
