Description Chris Kloiber 2001-08-19 16:23:47 UTC 
Description of Problem:

Opening the hwbrowser while using a logitech wheelmouse (Intellimouse
Compatable) causes the mouse to jump to the lower left corner of the screen
and prevents further mouse usage. Workaround is to kill X with
CTRL-ALT-BKSPACE.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

This is in Roswell-2.

How Reproducible:

Always.
Comment 1 Jonathan Blandford 2001-08-19 16:52:32 UTC 
all hwbrowser does is:
import kudzu
kudzu.probe ()
Comment 2 Jonathan Blandford 2001-08-22 18:53:19 UTC 
fixed in CVS.  A new version will be put in rawhide when we get a few more
translations.
