I also upgraded from KDE3 to KDE4 and rebuilt all my ports. Everything seems to work fine except the mouse. There is an irritating delay that I can't seem to get rid of. For example, if I mouse to the address line in Firefox and begin typing in a url, nothing happens until I move the mouse. Then, suddenly, what I typed will appear in the address bar. If I'm working in a shell, for example running portupgrade, nothing happens until I move the mouse. Then suddenly portupgrade will start working. Has anyone seen this type of behavior? Have any idea what the cause might be or where to look to troubleshoot the issue? -- Paul Schmehl, Senior Infosec Analyst As if it wasn't already obvious, my opinions are my own and not those of my employer. ******************************************* "It is as useless to argue with those who have renounced the use of reason as to administer medication to the dead."
