it's what you tried and you said that it didn't work (appending
psmouse.proto=exps to kernel boot line in grub)
recognize that you must reboot for the setting to take root.
Myself, I have resorted to psmouse.proto=bare because that works and the
only drawback is that the mouse wheel doesn't work.
The Belkin switches are the problem. I'm too cheap to buy another brand
but I probably should just bite the bullet.
The 2.6 kernel obviously has timing issues which causes this to occur on
the Belkin switches. I don't believe that this is a distribution or
driver issue but rather a kernel issue. Whether you replace the Belkin
switch with another brand or resort to one of the techniques such as
psmouse.proto=bare is your choice.
