Hi,

Yes, thjere was a serious mouse bug problem with usb mice fixed in
Xpmac rev8 and later versions.  It seems that the accelerated Xpmac
was not properly setting an accurate time for the mouse button
events.

Please try upgrading to Xpmac rev9 and try again (see
http://www.linuxppc.org/BlueG3/ for a link.

If you still have a mouse problem with Xpmac rev9, please let me
know.

Thanks,

Kevin
