I was surfing in firefox when my pointer disappeared. Moving my mouse up
and down (even without button pushed) was making my browser window scroll.
I pressed a mouse pointer and that behaviour stopped.
I moved my mouse and I saw it moving up and down on my left side of the
display. I could move it fast up and down, but didn't seem to go to the
right.
It seems like I read about someone having this problem before, but can't
find via google.
I then found I can move my mouse very slow to move the pointer to any
where on my display. But if it goes to fast then it jumps to the left
again.
I closed firefox (and made sure the process was not running) and I
restarted blackbox. My pointer is still stuck on left side.
Has anyone seen this?
I just upgraded from xorg 6.8.2 to cvs version (monolothic xc build).
Here are some parts from my config:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "wsmouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/wsmouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
EndSection
I have been using this for a few days.
Previously my configuration did not have that ZAxisMapping configurations
and was using /dev/wsmouse0 instead.
This is NetBSD/i386 2.0.2.
xsets says:
Pointer Control:
acceleration: 2/1 threshold: 4
Any hints before I restart X?
