When I click on an icon in KDE it locks up the pointer about 20% of the time.
Since ctl-alt-bs or ctl-alt-del doesn't work at all I have to hit reset.
It's pretty hard to get very far into an X session without having to hit
reset.
GPM is not installed on my machine.
This is a new Mandrake 8.0 install on a AMD K2-500 system which ran Mandrake
7.2 flawlessly. Plenty of memory and disk - and the hardware never glitches.
The mouse is a Logitech optical ps/2 mouse.
My XF86Config-4 looks like this:
# Pointer Section
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "ZaxisMapping" "4 5"
# Option "Emulate3Buttons"
# Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
# Option "ChordMiddle"
EndSection
Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated.
The system is substantially unusable right now except in console mode.
