On my Gentoo at home, yes. The mouse cursor skips, scrolling gets

I have to use version 2.6.23-gentoo-r8 for my kernel or it does the same
thing. Someone mentioned that it is a setting in the kernel for one of
the new features. At some point I plan to post the info here and try to
figure out what setting I should use but just haven't done it yet.
The only other thing I can think of is the drives being busy. I think
they have ionice now too.
I have this in my make.conf:
PORTAGE_IONICE_COMMAND="ionice -c 3 -p \${PID}"
Helped a bit. But still the GUI (KDE 3.5.10) gets pretty laggy. Just a
few hours ago I updated to gcc-4.3.2-r1. Even with nice 19 and ionice
3, lag is there.
I hope someone finds the magic button in the kernel config to fix that :P
