Aha. And what would be your advice ? Rather leave the BIOS mouse option ON and
use "usb-handoff", or remove both ?

I'll check without both tomorrow anyway, it's a bit late tonight for keeping
on breaking the machine ;-)

Hmmm... I've seen... 2.6.12 is the first release that seems to be willing to
work on my system -- with some tweaking, coffee and aspirin. Previous 2.6.x
releases I had tried (2.6.3, 2.6.6) were horribly broken on my poor VIA
hardware ;-)

Cheers.
