This is an artifact of the kernel handing "control" of the mouse back and forth between gpm and X. This often happens in the middle of a packet of info from the mouse, and therefore looks like corrupt data. If you are not experiencing problems, you need not do anything about this. Otherwise, see /usr/doc/xfree86-common/FAQ in the latest xfree86-common package (3.3.3.1-3). -- G.
