Chase,

I followed your instructions. I still get the odd pointer behavior. This is kind of hard for me to explain. With the playback I did not notice any issue. But with the latest updated xorg, the pointer movement always *feels* odd. By feeling I mean that I cannot notice it by just looking at pointer movement on the screen but it always feels erratic and less accurate. Sorry for being ambiguous.

Also, it seems this odd behavior is not noticeable in a fresh session but only starts after a few minutes' uptime. I tested this behavior with two different optical mouse and still the same behavior.

Can this affect gaming? I play Urban Terror on my system and it is most noticeable there. Moving the player around with mouse in the game feels more erratic than working on the desktop with files etc.

All these issues on my system go away as soon as I downgrade to stock xorg version. The odd feeling + mouse movement in the game and on the desktop, everything comes back to normal.

Sorry I am not able to provide any accurate info.
