    My mouse freezes randomly under X !!

    Release 4.8, gdm + gnome. (Clean 4.8 install)

    The mouse freezes only when typing text and after random periof of time.
    Sometimes only in seconds (when typing text).

    /var/log/messages: (after crashing)
    May 17 18:53:56 limo /kernel: psmintr: delay too long; resetting byte
    count
    May 17 18:55:17 limo /kernel: psmintr: delay too long; resetting byte
    count

    /etc/rc.conf:
    moused_flags=""
    moused_port="/dev/psm0"
    moused_type="auto"
    moused_enable="YES"

    /etc/X11/XF86Config:
    Section "InputDevice"
            Identifier "Mouse0"
            Driver "mouse"
            Option "Protocol" "auto"
            Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
    EndSection

    After it has frozen, kill -HUP to the moused restores it working again,
    but causes some random movements and clicks. /var/log/messages says:

    May 17 19:04:53 limo /kernel: psmintr: out of sync (0000 != 0008).
    May 17 19:04:53 limo /kernel: psmintr: discard a byte (1).

    ...

    May 17 19:04:55 limo /kernel: psmintr: discard a byte (19).
    May 17 19:04:55 limo /kernel: psmintr: out of sync (0000 != 0008).
    May 17 19:04:55 limo /kernel: psmintr: reset the mouse.

    Any ideas what might wrong? Found some out of sync reports from www & FAQ,
    but they didn't help.
