[SLUG] Cursor moves on its own

I'm running Gentoo 2004.1, all synched and updated, kernel 2.6, Xfree
4.3, and IceWM on a Toshiba Satellite 4090XDVD. Frequently, the mouse
pointer mpves to either the top right corner, or bottom left corner.
Sometimes it moves slowly, other times it is fast. Someitme I can move
the pointer back out onto the desktop, but it goes right back to the
corner. After a while, this behaviour stops, only to start back up at a
later time. Restarting X fixes it for a while.

I do not have this problem when booting from a Knoppix Live CD, and did
not have this problem when I was running W2K on this laptop. I will try
to send lines for the xf86config file later... the cursor is stuck in
the upper right hand corner right now, so I can't start a terminal
session... Thanks for any help!

Doug
