After updating from around a 10-26-96 current to 11-5-96 and todays 11-7-96 kernel. I am having problems when runnig X. My PS2 mouse at times reacts strange when I move my cursor to another window too fast. It will charge to the far right of the screen when I am moving it to the left. Another symtom is not being able to input from the keyboard, freezing windows, and garbage appearing in an xterm, and not being able to use the scroll bars at times. An exit from X will tempoarily clear the problem. It was working just fine under a 10-26-96 version of current. So I went back to the 10-26 version of /usr/src/sys tree mixed with the 11-5-96 source tree and it works fine. I then removed the old current /usr/src/sys directory tree and did a cvsup last night. Still have the same problem with the new sys directory tree. Questions: 1. By just replacing currents (11-5-96) sys tree with my 10-26-96 sys tree it fixed the problem. What dependancies exist that would not make todays sys tree work with 11-5-96 source tree? 2. Other than make clean; make cleandir; and make world; is there anything else that I might have skipped to create this problem? I am running fvwm95, rxvt, Netscape 3.01 gold. My system is a P6NDF 200 Pentium Pro e/w 64MB RAM, Adaptech 2940UW, Wide & narrow SCSI disks, CD and TAPE. Any thought would be appreciated. Should I install the new 2.2 X11R6, I ams using the 2.1.5 version of X11R6.
