The mouse is recognized and is active, but rather than moving around the screen in a sane fashion it jumps around when it is moved *at all* and generally screws stuff up. I've tried running it with and without moused with Microsoft, IntelliMouse, and SysMouse protocols. I've modified the resolution. I also had to reset the device flags on psm0 to correct a bunch of "psmintr" errors. The mouse itself is one of the two button variety with a roller. The connection is via a PS/2 port (/dev/psm0) Is this a release 3.0 problem? I have an older server that runs fine; it has a serial mouse, though. If anyone has run into this, please let me know the fix. Also, CC any replies to my email address as I don't generally subscribe to the mailing list. Many thanks for the help!
