About a week ago, my wife's mouse started going wacko in Gnome.  When
she tries do do something (I haven't been able to track it down to an
individual action or sequence), the pointer flies around the screen and
generates seemingly random mouse movements.  I've looked at
her /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and everything looks okay to me.  Here it
is:

Section "ServerLayout"

Can anyone help us with this?  I have no idea what to do.  Her mouse and
my mouse are identical (optical) and our two xorg.conf files are very
similar.  I have not seen this phenomenon on my PC though.  We are using
modular X.
