I can confirm this bug : I bought a Verbatim Rapier V2 mouse yesterday, and the problem appeared since them.

(laptop is my computer name)

The line shown appears whenever I presse anyone of the button (left/right/previous/next/scroll), but also when I just move the mouse or use the scroll wheel. I let you imagine how many lines that makes!!

I'm under Ubuntu 10.10, all latest patches. I notices that when I move the mouse, the lines appears at the beginning and at the end of the movement only (kind of startMoving/stopMoving event, but not during "moving" event).

The problem did not appear with my previous mouse (logitech Cordless click plus), nor with my trackpad.

I can add a full "apport-collect" report if necessary.
