Did you change or update any hardware recently? This might be a bit
far-fetched, but I observed behaviour like this when connecting a new
monitor to a machine running CentOS5 through DVI. I don't recall the
details, but the monitor created some kind of interrupt issue that the
CentOS5 kernel (5.4 - 2.6.18-164.15.1.el5) couldn't handle. Symptoms
were slow-responding keyboard and jerky mouse.
If it's something like this, you should see it in the logs.
