Re: Periodic Fedora 9 system hangs with jumpy mouse

The cause of this problem on my system seems to be when dragging (resizing) a window. X then seems to hang, the pointer gets jumpy
I should also have added that the mouse cursor image "sticks" to the diagonal arrow - it doesn't become the normal arrow/pointer again.

I have just booted up in the debug kernel and managed to re-hang X in no time at all, using the method described above... :-/

The only error message I can find, both in dmesg and messages, is this:

kernel: ACPI Error (tbfadt-0453): 32/64X address mismatch in "Pm2ControlBlock": [00008800] [0000000000008100], using 64X [20070126]

The timestamp of this log entry roughly corresponds to the occurrence of the hang. But whether this has any bearing on the problem, I cannot say. I would guess that ACPI has some interaction with mouse events through X (e.g. polling), but judging by the position of this log entry, it appears to be during boot time.

Any advice relating to debugging gratefully received...

Steve
