Please CC: me, as I am not subscribed to this list.
I am using kernel 2.6.2 with SMP support on an Asus A7M-266D
motherboard. I am using a Logitech M-BJ69 ps/2 mouse.
While in xfree, twice today I had the following happen:
While using the mouse, the pointer suddenly jumped wildly all over the
place, I heard exactly two PC speaker beeps, then I got control back.
This took about a quarter second in total. After that, no mouse button
worked, including wheels.
I ctl-alt-backspace out of xfree. I check my load and it is high. I'm
using xfce 4.0.3 window manager, and xfwm4 is taking up 99.9% of cpu. I
need to kill -9 it. Not sure if xfce4 is actually a problem, I don't see
how it would affect the mouse.
Both times I got the following error in logs:
kernel: psmouse.c: Explorer Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost
synchronization, throwing 3 bytes away.
Here is some more info on my system:
Gentoo Linux
glibc-2.3.3_pre20040117
gcc (GCC) 3.2.3 20030422 (Gentoo Linux 1.4 3.2.3-r1, propolice)
xfree 4.3.99.902
Now what stands out there is the xfree version. I never had this error
in 4.3.0.
Starting xfree and xfce4, I get the following in logs. And yes it really
is this many times:
atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x7a on
isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: This is an XFree86 bug. It shouldn't access hardware directly.

Is there any further info I can provide to help solve a possible problem?
Thanks!
