    After several corded optical mouses went bad on me (I believe the cable
    breaks where it enters the mouse body, or in one case, the left mouse
    button quit), I switched to the Cordless Click!. It works great except...

    When I reboot the computer under Linux, the mouse goes haywire. When X
    starts, it jumps all over the screen in response to any movement.
    Moreover, it seems generate clicks as windows will start popping up. I
    can only get the mouse to behave by booting with a different mouse then
    unplugging it and plugging in the Click!.

    I'm running the system through a 4-port IOGear MiniView KVM. I'm not
    getting any problems on a similar box (same model mainboard) running XP
    (yech!). Also, I'm not getting the same problem booting from Knoppix (I
    normally run Debian Sarge with a 2.6.7 kernel). I've tried adjusting the
    mouse settings in XF86Config-4 but no luck.

    Here's my current settings:

    Section "InputDevice"
      Identifier "Configured Mouse"
      Driver "mouse"
      Option "CorePointer"
      Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
      Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
      Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
      Option "ZAxisMapping" "5 6"
      Option "Buttons" "6"
    EndSection

    Again, various protocols, ZAxisMapping and Buttons settings all seem to
    work equally badly.

    Any suggestions?
