Description of problem:

move or call menu. under Gnome and Xfce.  kernel 3.1.4-1.fc16.x86_64.

"regular" usb mouse works well under both kernel versions.

Actual results:

kernel 3.1.4-1 give mistakes with touchpad, 3.1.0-7 -not

Do you happen to have an Elantech touchpad in this machine?  If so, there was a missing commit in the 3.1.4-1 kernel that could misidentify some versions.  That has been included in the 3.1.5 kernel in updates-testing.  Could you try that?
