Do you have a PS/2 mouse? I've had horrible problems with them -- they go
out of control in the same way you describe, if not configured correctly.
Basically, you have to decide whether it is a PS/2 or IMPS/2 (Intellimouse?
or compatible) mouse and say so in /etc/X11/XF86Config or
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4. If you get the wrong one then you get funny (and
annoying) mouse behaviour.
I may be wrong but I guess it's worth a try :)
