I have a logitech trackman marble+, an optical trackball, and it works fine. However, I have found that, at lest on all suse linux versions I tried, it can not track fast mouse movements - but I know it is not a hardware problem, because windows can track it as fast as I can move it: therefore, it is a linux software problem somewhere.
But it is not only optical mice: my other machine, with a normal mouse, has the same problem. Both plug to the ps/2 port (/dev/psaux). A serial mouse worked faster, but I wanted the comm port free.
I use the same mouse here and don't have any tracking problems when moving it - fast or slow. Running 9.2 here. I *do* have a problem sometimes with it making a 'jump' movement when I am trying to zero in on something with the cursor. For example, getting ready to click on a kmail folder or email line and it jumps up one line. Same with a menu choice.
