USB mice move erratically toward the bottom-right of the screen when playing two first-person shooters. The track-pad goes unaffected, and other full-screen 3D games go unaffected as well. See the URL for a video. I recorded it in Fluxbox so that there might be as little influence from the window manager as possible (this isn't caused by KWin's 3D effects or Compiz). I will attach my make.conf, xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log as separate files. emerge --info output is pasted below.

Unfortunately, that didn't work: although I added the lines given in the, "Modules" section of xorg.conf, the behaviour remained. Please check the newly attached xorg.conf.

Ah! After commenting out all but the lines in the given link in the Modules section of xorg.conf, the mouse works properly. Thanks for the help! Closing as, "worksforme".
