is it an optical mouse? who makes it? usb or ps/2?
in /etc/X11/XF86Config, search for a few lines resembling the following:
Identifier "Something describing a mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" ???
Option "Device" "/dev/something"
what is the protocol string (the ???). if its an optical mouse, and ???
is "PS/2", try changing it to "IMPS/2" and restarting X
ive had this problem before and i think this is how i fixed it
