Don't forget to try rotating the mousepad 90 degrees. I have no experience
with the .ps-file-on-paper mousepads, but getting a real Sun mousepad 90
degrees "out of phase" will certainly mess up your mouse motion.
Also remember that Type 4 and Type 5 mouse pads are different, and not
interchangeable. I dunno about Type 3, but I wouldn't be surprised if they
are different again.
