Are you using the mouse on a reflective surface?
If so you may want to use an A4 pad of paper. In the past I have found this to be the best mouse mat. |

bgeddy,
I barely can control usb mouse movement, same mouse has worked great until last slackware64 stable version. Using Xfce 4.6.2 DM on PC. I noticed xfce4 mouse settings Automatically Uses "Virtual Core XTest" mouse option. Logictech USB is an option but when chosen, option reverts back. Do have the same situation with Xfce settings? Mouse pointer acts as if it has MS! Driving me insane! Hints/Changes - its recommended xorg.conf-vesa which is automatically generated no longer be edited manually. Any changes need to go into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d which is empty? Input hotplugging is no longer done using hal; instead, it now uses udev for input device detection and keyboard mapping. Found an Archwiki for using udev /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ is the "packaged" configuration directory; all files ending with ".conf" in this directory are used by the X server unless there is an identically-named file in the local sysadmin directory. The local sysadmin config directory is /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ - all files ending with ".conf" in this directory are parsed. There are several default config files in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/: * 10-evdev.conf a "catchall" file for input devices using the evdev driver; this should work for most hardware in the absence of a better driver * 50-synaptics.conf overrides the earlier 10-evdev.conf file and uses the synaptics driver for all touchpads * 50-wacom.conf overrides the earlier 10-evdev.conf file and uses the wacom driver for Wacom tablets * 90-keyboard-layout.conf this sample ("normal" en layout) keeps the "old" default of allowing Zap'ing the Xserver. If you need to modify any of these defaults, then copy the relevant file from /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and edit the copy. When I tried to paste an edited version for my old good mouse settings: Option "Protocol" "Auto" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "ZAxis Mapping" "4 5 6 7" as snippet in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ - startx would not open Xfce, so I just gave up till now. I use a KVM Switch so Tried: uncomment the following line in /etc/modprobe.d/psmouse.conf: #options psmouse proto=imps Next, unload and reload the psmouse module (do this as root): modprobe -r psmouse ; modprobe psmouse From Dugan Make Mouse More Sensitive:http://duganchen.ca/writings/slackware/setup Also changed usbhid.conf options usbhid mousepoll=2 Found this:http://www.smop.co.uk/blog/index.php...tech-g7-mouse/ In /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Section “InputClass” Identifier “evdev mouse” MatchProduct “Logitech USB Receiver” MatchIsPointer “true” Option “ButtonMapping” “1 8 3 4 5 6 7 2″ EndSection I don't know if it will help our situation. Please post your how you solve your mouse insanity. I'll do the same but I don't understand all the options so its trial and error. |

I noticed in your Xorg.log output the lines...
Code:
[ 100.207] (WW) Mouse0: No Device specified, looking for one... Do things improve if you actually use /dev/input/mouse0 instead? |
I would make a new 'xorg.conf' and add only what is necessary. I would add:
Code:
Section "Module" Some other suggestions, some may have been stated before: 1) Use the mouse on a textured surface, not smooth. 2) Keep both the surface and bottom of the mouse clean. Sometimes an object, like a strand of hair or speck of dust will cling to it and cause strange movement of the pointer. 3) Plug the mouse into a different USB port. Check 'cat /proc/interrupts' for lots of interrupts on a single usb IRQ, the one with your mouse. |
Code:
#:cp /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-vmmouse.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ Code:
Section "InputClass" Xfce is still using vmmouse? Looking to see how to turn off the touchscreen and touch pad, don't have either maybe this will stabilize mouse. Changed mouse pad from a cloth type to a kind of laminated Penguin. lol Mouse is tracking a straight line now! I'm happy. |
Batteries?

Why do u have /dev/psaux instead of /dev/mouse? You also have an Identifier of Mouse0 mine is Mouse1, only have one mouse? /dev/psaux may be the ghost in your mouse. Hope so ;) Here is my Auto Generated xorg.conf-vesa and its working with a usb wireless Logitech S530 keyboard + mouse: Code:

Are you running multiple monitors? I had this problem before when running multiple screens(logic screens) with X server on different monitors, mouse start jumping around cross over between monitors. By using Nvidia's twinviews, or using Xinerama only, just running single screen over multiple monitors helped to remedy my mouse problem. And, I bought new mouse as well, my mouse is a usb mouse connecting with adapter to ps/2 port. Hope this will help you.
Code:
Section "InputDevice" |
