identify whether it is the OS or the hardware.
Sigh. As is mentioned in the OP, I've tried multiple mice on both
systems. Both wired AND wireless. I'm really not new to debugging an
issue. Mainly, my post was one of curiosity rather than requesting a
solution. I'm of the mindset right now that it's a KDE 4.8.2 issue
considering I've got the same problem on completely different hardware
and completely different distros but upgraded to 4.8.2 at the same time
this popped up.
That doesn't mean it's a bug, it may just be a tweak to the mouse config
is needed. Just wanted to see if anyone had seen it.
