Hello all, I've just installed Debian (woody?) and all is well except the following. Having installed and configured X, the mouse is behaving rather strangely. It works fine for around ten seconds or so and then just stops dead for another ten seconds or so, sometimes jumping to the bottom left corner of the screen. Then, after much mouse moving, it springs back to life and works fine again. This goes on ad infinitum.
After looking on the 'net for a possible solution I found only to suggestions. 1) there's an IRQ confict and 2) my mouse is dirty! I checked /proc/interrupts and all seems well and my mouse works fine under Windows, ruling out the other possibility. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated, it's driving me bonkers! Incidentally it's a PS/2 Intellimouse and I'm using the ImPS/2 driver, the only one that seemed to work at all.
