I had this weird cursor behaviour last week, on Fedora 7. I was running
a Xen kernel, also (2.6.20-2931, probably; but it could be a different
version).

If I recall correctly, I didn't have any guest running at the time. It
happened when I started an Eclipse-based application[1]. The cursor
could be moved to the right, but only if I moved the mouse very slowly.

On my case, it was a desktop machine, so I didn't have a touchpad,
just an USB mouse.


However, I didn't manage to reproduce the problem today. Is it easily
reproducible, on your case?


[1] It was a IDE from QNX I had just installed for testing.
