My mouse: Logitech VX Nano

I can observe very strange behaviour my mouse. When i click left button and hold this button moving cursor on the screen it look like mouse have random time auto click

I thought my mouse is damage but i tried the sam mouse with the same notebook on Windows Vista and mouse work corretly.

I dont remember when it started but i am sure 1-3 days ago. What changed... i am not sure, mayby i emerged new packages... Simply i dont remember. Kernel image is still the same like before.

Bug extended description:
Mouse work corretly with other system (Windows Vista). With gentoo, mouse has one bug (other functions work corretly). If i click down left button (and hold this button down, not up after click) and example try mark this text i can see like mouse has random time break with signal and its look aufo-fire left button mouse. I cant mark text, i cant moving window on the screen, i cant do nothing when you use long left mouse click. I cant work...

Now i am trying with the same mouse but with right button: work corretly.

Now i am trying with other mouse: other mouse work corretly.

Mind that the newest xorg versions use hal and autoconfigure the input devices, so the entries in xorg.conf are no longer relevant.

It all starts here:

I said problem is solved too fast...

Mouse work coretly only if i restart hald after runed xorg/xfce. 10-x11-input.fdi dont change this. Simply i have to restart hald after run X. Only in this way, if i restart hald and then run X mouse not work. I have to be logon into X before restart hald.

I will check this today later and write what i find.

Added:

Eh... problem still exist. It happen very rare but still..... Its raelly strange.

I don't know enough about hal to tell you where to start debugging this, but it seems that's hal the problem.

The only thing I could suggest (bear in mind, it's not a solution) is to compile the xorg-server with USE=-hal, then revert to your old configuration with the kbd and mouse driver in your xorg.conf instead of the hal/evdev stuff. As said, not a solution, but if the problem is hal maybe disabling it disables also the problem. And hopefully hal will be more mature in the future so you can migrate without trouble.
