I saw the following fix for this problem on 2.6.x Ubuntu systems where the
kernel parameters had no effect:
/etc/modules
mousedev
psmouse proto=exps
What is the equivalent for CentOS?

Subject: RE: CentOS 4.2 Mouse Tracking Unstable
Getting a new KVM switch will take some explaining.
The Belkin has not been a problem up until now.
The RedHat-9 systems and The Windows-XP systems have no problems.
I would think that since CentOS is RedHat Enterprise, that this instability
would be causing real pain given that enterprise servers are much more
likely to be racked and accessed via a KVM switch.
Is this same instability being seen on the RedHat installs?
Does anyone know what changed in the mouse handling between 2.4 and 2.6?
Is it possible to revert to the previous drivers?

If that does not work then get a new KVM switch. Belkin KVM switches
have caused lots of people the same problem. The imps setting worked on
one of my systems.
Others have reported that if you switch to the terminal and back that it
will rest things. Have not tried that one, so I don't know if that will
work or not.
I finally installed a KVM from iogear that works well.
