Might not this USB Confuse-a-Cat brain fart explain ditto re a Doze box, too?
ie - Logitech Trackman Wireless via USB; needs to be reinitialized, but only occasionally. I just do the reset-button dance and let Mouseware redetect the sucker. I note that the other mouse == identical functionality but wired, on PS/2 - is not bothered.
I too didn't seek explanations because it's rare and the redetect works / no reboot even on Doze [fancy That!] If it's a USB relay-race - that's explanation enough por moi.
