I haven't seen this problem on my main box, which is SMP with 4.1-RC and
does not run moused.  I haven't seen the psmintr error, but I have seen
another odd problem on my old Toshiba laptop under several versions of
4* and *does* run moused.

The symtoms under X is the cursor slowly creeps downward and won't stay
put even when nothing is touching the little finger-force/joystick.  It
behaves as if it's lost its "center" spot.  I haven't figured out
when it starts doing this or what triggers it.

The odd part is that switching to a virtual console then back to the X
console fixes whatever's wrong.  Without touching the joystick.

(Since I haven't been able to figure out what's doing it, nor figured out
a way to repeat it, I didn't report it earlier.)
