Hello all.
Regarding this problem, I have been running X 3.3.2.3a-11 (which comes
with debian 2.1), and had my mouse freeze up on me once. I have a generic
3-button serial mouse. Unplugging it, plugging it back in, and killing gpm
solved the problem for me, and it hasn't happened since. I noticed this
problem only occurred after I moved to kernel 2.2.10, while it never
happened when I was running 2.2.6. I had a few applications running (2
rc5 crunchers, vmware, nestcape, and a few xterms), but nothing that would
cause the machine to be extremely strained. As far as what could cause it,
I don't know... but I doesn't seem like it is something I could recreate
at will.
Here's my hardware setup:
MTI M668DS motherboard
Dual PII-333 processors
512 mb SDRAM
Diamond Viper V550 AGP w/16mb
(sometimes a ati rage magnum OEM for frame buffer server testing)
2 Western Digital 8.4GB UDMA-33 drives
2 Seagate 9.1GB UW scsi drives
1 HP 2.1GB scsi2 drive
1 Quantum 2.1GB UW scsi drive
Toshiba XM6401 40x scsi cdrom drive
Realtek 8139 10/100mbit pci ethernet card
Soundblaster PnP32
generic 3-button serial mouse
