Well, I tried them (after adding a definition for MOUSE_MODEL_SYNAPTICS
to mouse.h) and I'm sorry to say they have no effect on my jumpy mouse.

In fact, my jumpy mouse's drug problems have only gotten worse and now
buttons get pushed so wildly in addition to the jumpyness that it's
becoming a cut-and-paste danger to my windows. :)

I've also seen the mouse finally go completely dead, necessitating a
reboot, on several occasions.  It's definitely to the point where I
now have to consider the PS/2 mouse driver unusable for SMP machines
running -current and am in search of a serial mouse for poor zippy
here. :-)

The psm driver isn't suffering from this problem in -stable, thank
god, and can still be used safely in the upcoming 4.1-RELEASE.
