mouse crazy

[Zbigniew Koziol]

I checked again how shiny (polished) is the table, are there any hair 
there, etc.

No, the problem is not of that kind that some dirt entered the mouse or 
between the table and mouse. Thats what puzzles me and thats why I wrote 
to this list.

The mouse (both on my Linux and wife's Windows) box is usb, both 
optical. We used both mouses before on the same tables, no change of 
physical conditions around, except that I disconnected them once and 
connected back (may be mixing them, possibly not to the same usb slot; 
in any case, I can not go back to the situation that was before, when 
both of them on both systems, worked fine).
