I have a ThinkPad T42 that can do this, as well, and this is what I thought when I first encountered this problem. However, I've had this Gateway laptop since about 1999 and it hasn't done this since. Not in 2.2 or 2.4. Also, like I said, xev produced no output when I touched and dragged in the offending areas. If this really is an added feature and there's a way to turn it off, that would be okay. Having it off by default would be best since it's seemingly a changed behavior between one kernel version and another (also, I hate that feature :) ). -- Andy
