I don't think this is it either. I've never had a problem.
I don't run a local X server (or a local mouse), but i run a lot of
Java apps displayed on my NT box.

IMHO there is an interrupt problem. Either a shared int or
perhaps XFree with his private serial mouse driver.

not since i left 2.0.36 behind)
