FC3 psychotic behavior

[Marc M]

I have a machine that does some weird stuff with the mouse. It is really 
random and it was absolutely unbearably worse when I had a trackball, but it 
happens with the regular ps/2 mouse too. Basically it is like random 
features, like right clicks or something, that pop up at strange times. I 
will be absolutely sure that I did not and am not clicking on something, 
when my psychotic FC3 box decides to right click or something or show 
something. It is not like someone is in there with VNC or something, because 
it is always like quick flickers and/or mouse jumping around. It doesn't 
seem to matter what I am doing - running mozilla, typing something in vi 
editor, clicking around the desktop - whatever. Also sometimes the mouse 
jumps around faster than a human could move it around the desktop (KDE 
although it happened with GNOME on here too). I haven't seen any compromised 
data at this point and I have run chkrootkit and I am reasonably sure that 
hacking isn't to blame here, more like an X or mouse problem. Also it is 
worth noting that I have had this problem after a clean install with the 
current mouse detected and configured at that time. I would sure like to 
know what could be corrupted. Does anyone know anything that I can check for 
this?
