said David Bell: | I find that my curser jumps all over the place periodically whilst | typing in Kmail. It used to happen whilst I used the Kmail, in various | distros using KDE4, and seems to be present when I use Trinity with | Ubuntu 12.04. | | Has anyone else experienced this and is there a remedy? actually, it's the cursor -- the curser is what *you* become when it happens! i've encountered this also, on several versions and in several distributions. in my case, it is the result of switching between a serial pointing device, where it was never a problem, to a USB one, where it sometimes is. i've not found it to be application-dependent, though. -- dep The shortest distance between you and playing great acoustic guitar: the great new instructional DVDs from Marjorie Thompson, available at www.MarjorieThompson.com
