USB Intellimouse problem

[Aaron <aaron@core-dev.com>]

Hey everyone,

I'm running Debian stable with an Intellimouse 3.0 and I'm having the
most awful time.

I had the older version Intellimouse on this machine (my laptop, an
Inspiron 4100) and it was great, then I had some problems and ended up
reinstalling Debian from scratch (in other words, all of my old
configuration is gone). Now the mouse is really choppy and many times
the left click isn't even detected. Sometimes it will click, but in
slightly the wrong place!

Here is the appropriate section of my XF86Config-4:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Intellimouse"
        Driver  "mouse"
        Option  "Protocol"              "ImPS/2"
        Option  "Device"                "/dev/input/mice"
        Option  "Buttons"               "5"
        Option  "ZAxisMapping"          "4 5"
        Option  "Emulate3Buttons"       "no"
        Option  "Resolution"            "1200"
EndSection

I added the Resolution option on a whim after seeing it in someone
else's config file, but it didn't do anything for me. Basically the
mouse cursor is smooth and accurate using the touchpad (/dev/psaux)
but really choppy and inaccurate using the Intellimouse.

Any suggestions? Any help appreciated.
