Description Nick Hinsch 2003-08-19 21:11:48 EDT 
When in game and navigating menus, the mouse seems to have a limited range of
motion. There seems to be an invisable boundary that the mouse cannot pass while
trying to move around in game. I am able to move my character's head about 270
degrees before the mouse "catches" on something. Movement on menus is better,
but still confined. It feels as if there is a rectangular box that the mouse is
confined to. The only remedy I have found to solve the boxy movemnt on menu's 
(and menus only, I have not been able to figure out what is going on in game)
is rapidly shaking/dragging the mouse in the direction you wish it to move.
Eventually the mouse will move further around the screen. The sensation is that
of a dirty mouse (non optical) that needs cleaning. I am using a logitech
cordless/optical usb mouse.

adding the following to your config seems to fix that (it did for me anyways)

seta in_mousegrab "1"

Though it seems to get erased everyso often.
