This seems odd to me. Maybe not if you recompiled the new 
version afterwards.

Never heard of....
Are you sure you selected the correct mouse type in /etc/vga/libvga.config?

No. All modes should behave very similarly. Your parameter choices
will of course lead to some differences and AM or FM is slightly different
from other modes, but it seems to me there is something wrong with the mouse.

Ok. More screen space will surely be welcome some day when decoded messages 
can be written on screen:-)
