[NTLUG:Discuss] Mouse trouble

[Greg Edwards]

May not be related to your problem, but.

Recently I've seen problems with mouse response when my wife has been 
online with her work computer.  I run traffic through my workstation as 
my router/firewall.  Her work computer is an MS laptop and very poorly 
setup by her employer.  The VPN and apps run very high outbound volume 
so it literally bogs down my workstation.  Mouse response can become non 
existent or spotty for short periods of time and then back to normal.

That was Mandriva 2010 with KDE 3.
