I noticed, that the live DVD works ok. So, after comparing the X
config files, I saw that the live DVD uses a generic mouse driver,
while the installed 9.3 uses the synaptics driver. I checked all the
options for the synaptics driver, and they look good, so I guess
something is broken there.
Anyway, I just set my X to use the generic mouse driver, and got the
stick back operational. No the synaptics extras though, but I do not
use them anyway.
