Keyboard and mouse
==================

I have updated my POWER9 box to  the Fedora 41 recently (before a month
or so). Since that moment I was suffering mouse problems. I replaced my
old mice  (an optical IBM one)  which has mechanical problems  with the
left button. The new one (the IBM-branded optical mice, too) worked but
was  SLOW and  freezes often.  It was  most noticeable  in the  Firefox
(short  freeze  almost  after  any click)  but  similar  behaviour  was
noticeable when using file manager (in the MATE) and so. Interestingly,
the keyboard has no such issues.

I  tried almost  everything to  configure  my system  (well, except  of
change from X11 to the Wayland...) but nothing helped.

So... as the last desperate effort  I have tried to replace the modern,
optical, USB mouse with  mu old good SGI mouse (the  PS/2 thing with an
adapter, with three  buttons but without any scrolling  thing).  And it
have been working from that moment. No delays, no freezes!

My PS/2  adapter has ports  both for the keyboard  and mouse so  I have
replaced my backlit MNT v3 keyboard (with mechanical keys) with the old
SGI Granite keyboard  which is full-sized and has  mechanical keys with
long travel. No backlight, no Windows-like keys.

Also, the  USB mouse+keyboard  combination occupied 2  USB ports  in my
hug. The PS/2 adapter uses just one UB. So the second one has been used
but the USB to serial port adapter (connected to the Palm III dock).

So my Palm  IIIx has been connected once again.  It is now synchronised
and is ready for action!
