Sorry to raise this again, but are people out there still having problems with PS/2 mice suddenly shooting up the right hand-corner under X. It would appear this has been happening to some of us since 2.1.124 , or there abouts, since the PS/2 code was moved into the keyboard stuff.
I've read a few posts pertaining to the 'ol gpm co-existance problems etc., but even with gpm absent altogether I'm still getting this. I have a 3 button MS intellimouse, everything worked fine 'til 2.1.124ac?, when the PS/2 mouse code was incorporated with the keyboard stuff.
To clarify a little further, the problem only occurs when I'm online to my ISP and my modem's lights are flashing, which leads one to feel it's something to do with interrupts or the like.
# cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 4451952 XT-PIC timer 1: 40386 XT-PIC keyboard 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 4: 357526 XT-PIC serial 8: 4 XT-PIC rtc 12: 33187 XT-PIC PS/2 Mouse 13: 1 XT-PIC fpu 14: 108003 XT-PIC ide0 15: 5 XT-PIC ide1 NMI: 0 IPI: 0
That's my modem on IRQ 4. I'm running `imwheel' and conduct an `irqtune' at boot time, but the elimination of either of these factors has, thus far, delivered no relief.
I know there's a few others suffering the same plight from earlier mailings on this list. Has anyone sussed this out yet, it's a real pain as, depending on when the bugger strikes, I have to CTRL-ALT-BS out of X altogether to recover the situation, core dumping as I go.
If this is rather old hat now, please could someone mail this list or myself as to how the problem can be resolved.
TIA
