Dear friends, I am not sure that Fedora has anything to do with this: quite likely, this is my old computer (9+ years-old, Dell Precision 650 running F17 LXDE spin, every software component zealously updated). For the past seven or ten days, my USB mouse has been freezing on me. This happens quite frequently when any GUI (including sylpheed, but most often firefox) is used. Disconnecting and reconnecting the USB mouse takes care of the problem till the next freeze. At all points of time, the keyboard is usable and I can type and move the focus using the keyboard and appropriate keys. My question is: what is causing this behavior? Is it a bad graphics card (or hopefully, some software component). Or something else? Any suggestions?
