This is is usually due to incorrect decoding of the mouse data stream

Please try to run mouse-test, from the gpm distribution (I bet it's
already installed in your system). If you can't find your way
through protocols please run "od -t x1 /dev/mouse" and send me
the output while you move the mouse and/or press buttons.

Hope this helps
