Additionally, the VNC Redhat desktop has no such problems with the mouse.

Thanks,

Subject: Mouse going nuts in RH Linux Enterprise 3 (Taroon)



Simply put...my mouse has started having a mind of its own in our Redhat
Enterprise Workstation 3 (Taroon) Linux box. It wants to focus on the bottom
left-hand corner of the screen, and clicks on whatever happens to be there
at the time (Languages at login, as an example). When I try to move the
cursor up towards my destination, it insists on refocusing down at the
bottom left-hand corner of the screen again. And though I press neither the
left nor right button, it functions as if I am. 

I don't know if any of these are related, but here are a few things which
lead up to this: 1. desktop crashed after a user killed a window through
remote VNC - I rebooted the machine 2. I have an entry in vncserver to start
up "root:1" (conflict?) - when a user remotely connects via VNC, they see a
similar desktop but it's NOT the same. I can tell, because windows will pop
up in the server that never appear in the VNC desktop. Icons layout is
identical, however. 3. The mouse in question is a scroll-wheel optical
(Microsoft) and is connected to a KVM switch. It worked perfect fine
previous to this.

Any ideas how I can exorcise my mouse? Any corrupted file to examine
perhaps?

Thanks,
Eve
