I was able to roughly figure out the problem. I tried all the configurations. But when ever I restart mouse services, the first time I move my mouse, it does some nasty things like opening some window, clicking on something else etc.., after this happens, the 'gpm' process immediately gets killed. this became evident when i tried to stop mouse services, which returned with a failure. thereafter, everything goes on fine, the mouse will be alright with its scroll feature disabled. So, I think that might be the problem. what do you say?
