I can understand the messiness of this thread, but this is a messy bug, and that's no reason close it. A developer who wants to work on this bug can find many entry points to start with. For example Rolf Leggewie has show lately an interesting case of this bug on a usb 1.1 machine, and he's

Rolf, Leann, I see your point and understand the need for precision, and I do appreciate the time you're spending on this. Bug 124406 started with something that is probably related to xorg, and quickly got mingled with the usb reset issue, which is what I struggled with until I rearranged my usb

Following BobRoss suggestion I tried another live CD. Because I saw less reports of this problem on the Arch distro, I went ahead and tried Chakra Linux alpha2 live CD, a distro derived from Arch. I was able to reproduce the bug right from start, but I only noticed it when looking at the kernel

I have experienced the problem again even though the mouse was connected directly to the laptop. The root of the problem is very elusive. I really don't want to buy another hardware, that's not the solution at all. As far as I am concerned, the only option I have left is to try another linux

I also have it on Kubuntu 9.04 amd64 with kernel 2.6.29. My most interesting facts are: - I had this bounce key pb when installing from kubuntu 9.04 live CD! I had to restart with my mouse connected to the laptop to continue - it only happens on my 7 ports D-link usb hub (DUB-H7), not on my hama
