It all went pretty well except for one problem, my mouse is being freaky. The mouse runs fine under XFree86 3.3.6 and on a VTY, but when I start XFree86 4.1.0, the cursor gravitates towards one corner of the screen (usually the upper-left) and just kind of sticks there. If I make some violent movements with the mouse, the cursor may move across the screen for a moment, but then it returns. The mouse is a plain ol' M$ IntelliMouse. I've tried telling the /etc/X11/XF86Config that it is uses both "IntelliMouse" and the "PS/2" "Protocol"s, but neither works. Just for completeness, I've attached my XF86Config file. There seems to be nothing unusual in the diagnostic messages for the mouse the server prints to the console as X starts up. Anyone have ideas what I need to do or what might be the problem? -- Crist J.
