I'm running etch on amd64. The last few weeks, my mouse would stop

i have to unplug (it's usb) and plug it back in to get the pointer
to move
again. I've tried 3 different usb ports. Keyboard works fine the
whole time.
It seems like a software problem, but it's not happening on my
home machine
(also running etch on amd64).
It looks like a config problem, which happens with usb mice.
Are there any other aspects?
Is gpm involved?
Two ways to fix it:
Adjust config of xserver-xorg;
Install gpm, which isn't a bad idea anyway, and the config of that
gives comprehensive treatment of usb mice.
Regards,
I had a intermittent USB mouse/keyboard non-responding prob and it
turned out to be due to me allowing the BIOS to overclock my AMD64
chip....
