I would not be surprised.  I can imagine various factors are probably
quite variable between different computer systems.  e.g.  Unshielded
mice cables.  Crappy power supply from the PS/2 port to the mouse.

Though it doesn't explain why the mouse went nuts with Linux but behaved
perfectly for Windows, on all the same hardware.  It is a type of serial
port, I wonder if the parameters get set properly?
