Hi Michael,
if it is the same "mouse-effect" I recognized as I tried to configure
my X...
It may be that the "auto" settings for the protocol fail to detect
the correct protocol (the wrong protocol was the reason for the "wild
mouse" in my case...).
I cannot determine the kind of mouse (manufacturer, brand,
interface...) from the output you send with your mail...
My mouse is identified at boot time like this:
input: Logitech N48 as /class/input/input0
input: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [Logitech N48] on usb-0000:00:10.0-2.4
it is an three-button USB-mouse (Logitech).
I configured it in xorg.conf like:
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
HTH
Have a nice weekend!
