It is sufficient in Debian Potato to just replace /dev/psaux with

Here is an earlier discussion on the list about the same problem (but if you
don't know it's the same problem, you can't search for it):

erratic mouse behavior in the GUI. But this only occurs after a reboot.
The problem is apparently that there are 2 mouse device programs running
at once. By killing gpm in bash, the problem is resolved.

In my case, the problem was with the video hardware cursor (thanks for
the idea D'jinnie). I am using the svga Xserver with a Cirrus Logic

previous config was that it tries to use hardware cursor (that's the only
line that even remotely pertains that I can see). Any guesses?
