	What a great list this is!

	About a week ago, after trying xdm on my new 5.2 server, 
	I asked this list why my mouse was jumpy/uneven/stuttering
	under xd,/ctwm.  I could tune it under gnome or kde, but
	still it was a head-scratch.

	The same day as my post was a similar post by Phil Schulz
	<ph.schulz at gmx.de> re a similar problem.  Mr Schulz's 
	suggestion was to add:

	hint.psm.0.flags="0x100"

	to the /boot/device.hints file.  I did this; just rebooted and
	tried xdm again.  Mouse problem resolved.  

	Just FWIW, 

	gary
