OK, I loaded the acpid RPM and started it, loaded ac and battery
modules, now when I start the battery monitor applet it works fine but
my cursor goes "out of control" and races about the screen doing random
things.
If I manage to logout of the session and the login screen returns, the
cursor becomes sane again.
Confirmed after a power cycle.
Ideas?
Um, you have a very very strange BIOS? :)
Seriously, the cursor only goes wacky *after* starting the battery
applet?
