I would get rid of one of these 2 sections. if your using a PS/2 mouse get rid of the second section. Also check to be sure GPM is not running, I reccomend removing it completely unless you have a specific use for it: apt-get remove gpm > Section "Device" > Identifier "Generic Video Card" > Driver "nv" > Option "dpms" "true" > EndSection your using the nv driver not the nvidia driver? Question: does the mouse freeze or does the whole X session freeze? that is, can you CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to kill/restart X or not? If not, then maybe its a nv driver bug. > Section "ServerLayout" > Identifier "Default Layout" > Screen "Default Screen" > InputDevice "Generic Keyboard" > InputDevice "Configured Mouse" > InputDevice "Generic Mouse" > EndSection I'd also remove the Generic Mouse entry from above to corrispond with the removal of the section And I reccomend backing up your config file before doing this so you can undo it easily if needed. Also are you using a KVM? many KVMs don't like wheels. even my KVM which the manual says it supports wheels, I've only got it to run with a wheel once or twice, and the rest of the time the wheel doesn't seem to work. so I hookup a 2nd pointer, a cordless USB trackball to my main desktop so I can use the wheel on it. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
