My original question had to do with USB disconnects/reconnects. I have this "issue" with wired mouse and wired keyboard.
Sometimes, after repeated messages all the same (many per minute over hours), this appears to cause the keyboard and/or mouse to lock up, not accepting input. At that point the PC requires reboot.
Same messages in /var/log/messages using:
-- different types (brands) of wired mouse and/or wired keyboard,
-- different distros of Linux (various Ubuntu, various Debian),
-- different kernels,
-- four different PCs with 3 different mobos, each with their own set of peripherals.
Had this problem going on two years now.

FWIW, I don't believe that this (bizzare mouse behavior) is a Linux issue.
I have a wireless logitech keyboard/mouse at work hooked up to a thinkpad running XP, and find that sometimes the mouse goes haywire. It seems to be due to wireless interference (there's a crapload of that in my office).
Have you tried relocating the receiver?
