It's the only thing that works, everything else hangs when I combine moused/X. This issue doesn't exist on all my systems, though. It existed on my old Thinkpad (Pentium-m 1.3 GHz), it exists on my new notebook (Core2 Duo with 2.4 GHz), but it doesn't exist on my P4 with 1.6 GHz. Key entries, animations, they all just pile up somewhere and happen all at once when I start using the mouse. To watch a movie I have to keep the mouse moving all the time. It's not a general X and mouse problem, because without moused in between everything works fine. I think at some point in time a bug was either introduced in moused, or in my opinion more likely, in the sysmouse protocol implementation in X.
