RE: X-windows + Mouse issue
This is a Microsoft Intellimouse PS/2 Compatible.
I have now installed gpm and tried it with gpm with the same results.
Thanks,
Darren

What model of mouse do you have?
In the past, when I've seen this sort of thing, it was because of mouse
configuration problems. Either the wrong protocol, or the wrong device,
was selected in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Or gpm was running; if that's the
case, try removing or disabling it and see if that helps.
