(the number of bytes will be 1, 2, or 3) At work, I get it when there is heavy NFS traffic. The mouse goes crazy, jumping around and doing random cut-and-paste all over everything. This is with a decently fast and modern PC. I'll guess that NFS and the mouse both have worker threads fighting for CPU time, and neither is RT. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
