To the end of /boot/grub/grub.conf I added the line:

Well the psmouse.proto=imps needs to be added to one of the kernel command lines in grub.conf, not on a line by itself.
And???
Here is my grub.conf
default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (2.6.9-22.0.2.EL) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-22.0.2.EL ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet initrd /initrd-2.6.9-22.0.2.EL.img title CentOS (2.6.9-22.0.1.EL) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-22.0.1.EL ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet initrd /initrd-2.6.9-22.0.1.EL.img title CentOS-4 i386 (2.6.9-22.EL) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-22.EL ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet initrd /initrd-2.6.9-22.EL.img
where do I put that option?
after the "quiet" add a "space" and try psmouse.proto=imps
also try psmouse.proto=bare
you might also try this in /etc/X11/xorg.conf for the mouse driver (that works for my belkin switch and a logitech scroll mouse):
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
I use a msi wireless keyboard and mouse on a kvm and the only time I see erratic mouse behaviour is when the batteries have gotten low and I put in a full charged set.
Well, I just tried new batteries.
No different.
Now I have cascaded KMS. My graphical Centos boxes are at:
Switch 1, 'port' 8 Switch 2, 'port' 1 (port 6 on Switch 1 is the cascading port)
This system is on Switch 2, 'port' 5
Tomorrow morning, I will move it to port 4 on switch 1 (only open port on switch 1) and see what happens.
The frustrating part is that everything was fine until I did that java install. folllowed by a yum update (which only pulled down a update to yum).
If no change, it is back to reinstall. Maybe that is just as well. I had to do a manual disk partition and did not make notes. Redoing it will force me to make some notes....
