This happened to me yesterday while compiling Mozilla (which took longer than a "make buildworld"!) The mouse just went haywire, clicking and moving all about the screen, rearranging my KDE desktop, and panel items, randomly selecting menu items. It was quite a sight. My syslog messages look like this: Aug 16 16:31:01 onceler /kernel: psmintr: out of sync (00c0 != 0000).
