This bug is killing me long long years... I had the same problem with R61e, now I have thinkpad L520. If I remember correctly, this bug is there miminally since 8.04 or 7.10 (maybe 7.04?) when I began to use ubuntu. It's absolutely irritating and frustrating to have mouse freezed sometimes 3 times per 10 minutes. I am lucky I am using much more keyboard than "mouse" (trackpoint, touchpad). Otherwise could be ubuntu absolutely useless for me. Today was this bug upgraded. In attached dmesg it's last row: psmouse serio5: Failed to enable mouse on synaptics-pt/serio0. Cursor completely disappeared. I can not imagine, what would do beginner user...
