Subject: Mouse query


I hate to ask for repetitions of items posted to the list, but...
Can someone summarise the known mouse driver problems and solutions?

I've been having a lot of problems with a Logitech serial mouse, It's
a Pilot mouse I think.  The driver says it's standard version 6.12.
The VESA compatible overlay is installed.  MSD reports the driver as version
6.01, microsoft compatible version 8.00.  I'm running dos 5.00.  The system is
a 486DX33, AMI bios, ISA Cirrus graphics card.

What happens is the mouse pointer occaisionally jumps `randomly' and
non-existent button presses occur.  What is (not) interesting is that the jumps
also occur when I am using windows, however, the problem is far worse when
using my own software (C, DJGPP 1.08).  All insights appreciated.
