I did apply this patch, with vim as its only 2 characters that are actually
changed. But now I'm going to go back and look at the log from before I
rebooted to this patch. Yes, since 2.6.18-rc6, I'm getting these in the
log, and this patch obviously has no effect on the below log entries.

And they are being logged at times when I am nowhere near the mouse to move
it, at varying intervals of 2-3 a minute as you can see above.

Is there a way to shut this up? The mouse is working great, although its
possible the battery is getting weak.
