Hi there!

Since I upgraded to 0.99-p8 (from p7) one of these days, I am
experiencing an instability in the serial driver. After using
X-windows for a while and usually after some heavy work of the system
while I'm playing around with the mouse pointer the mouse starts

                  - behaving as if the ball was muddy (it isn't. Not really)
                  - the the mouse just quits to move. The mouse keys still are
                    o.k., just the thing won't budge a bit.

Leaving X and restarting it doesn't help. So far the only thing I
found was rebooting, which I really don't like too much.

I'd appreciate ideas!

Hank.
