That sounds to me like a device driver fault - the wrong driver for your
mouse. Which distro do you use? Does it have a tool for configuring
peripherals? If not, the setting is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, where you
should find a section similar to

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
EndSection

Oh, sorry. I forgot to mention that. I have opensuse 10.2. The mouse i
use is a simple Logitech Optical USB Mouse.

The xorg.conf looks like this:

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse[1]"
Option "Protocol" "explorerps/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
EndSection

Hmm - that's the same mouse as I have. Perhaps another Suse user could check
the small differences between your config and mine. I suspect that they are
just distro-specific, though. Sorry, I can't think of any other explanation.
