I don't remember when this started because I originally attributed it to a failing mouse, but I just replaced the mouse and the symptoms remain. The problem is that scrolling with the wheel is causing strange behavior. This manifests when I want to scroll back/up-ward; if I scroll down a screen, the screen just does what it's supposed to. If I reverse direction, various strange things happen depending on the program I'm in.
Hey Claude,
I've had this problem with various RedHat dirivatives, (Fedora, RHEL, ConetOS, etc) for years. I just put

psmouse.proto=imps

in /etc/grub.conf, and the problem goes away. Add it to the "kernel" line, e.g.,

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.17-1.2157_FC5 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet psmouse.proto=imps

(beware of line wrapping)

Hope that helps,
 -Paul
