I saw the same here yesterday, using a logitech wheel mouse:

Feb 4 18:19:46 vega kernel: psmouse.c: Wheel Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0
lost synchronization, throwing 2 bytes away.

Before this happened the mouse in X just went nuts with random clicks in
many windows, but after that it's been ok up to now.

FYI the mouse is detected as:

Feb 4 08:57:42 vega kernel: serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
Feb 4 08:57:42 vega kernel: input: PS2++ Logitech Wheel Mouse on
isa0060/serio1

The motherboard is an Intel 440BX2 with a PII-350 running kernel 2.6.2.

Thanks

Claudio
