mouse wheel jitter making scrolling virtually impossible (SOLVED)

[kevinbanjo]

Hi, as the title says, my mouse wheel scroll seems to go randomly up and down when rolling it, usually only showing a slight bias towards going the direction I want it to go.  Its an external wireless mouse.   Here's the lsusb on report for it:

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 046d:c534 Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver

Any ideas how to fix?

Before going any further, have you tried another battery .. my mouse often goes nuts when the battery is low.

Yup, that was it!   Thanks!
