However, when I upgrade the kernel to the newer ones through apt-get, the mouse goes wild upon boot.  This has been true through 4 updates.  By this I mean it randomingly pops all over the screen and appears to be clicking on various buttons as it does so since unwanted apps come up.  This is an nForce2 ckipset motherboard using an ATI video card machine.

When I've seen this happen it seems to be due to using the wrong mouse 
protocol.
