I am seeing about the same thing here. My system is running: FreeBSD slan.es.net 7.0-STABLE FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #2: Mon Mar 17 21:39:01 PDT 2008 root@slan.es.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/IBM-T43 i386 What is possibly notable is that I only started seeing this problem yesterday, right after upgrading to Gnome 2.22. It looks like the Gnome upgrade triggered something, possibly an interaction with the moused, sysmouse, or xf86-input-mouse. The system is a T43 using the internal keyboard and TrackPoint(tm). The Gnome upgrade was pretty smooth with everything building, but portupgrade complaining about some dependency loops. (I'll report about this to the Gnome list.) This is more than a bit annoying. It also impacts menus and scroll bars. I plan to drop back to my backup from before the Gnome upgrade. I can make config, xorg.conf, and dmesg available, but I can't see anything odd there. -- R.
