Sry, I expressed myself a bit wrong.
I don't want to use an external mouse, but I found the thread with google and saw that there are some more people with that wild / dizzy / buggy / random mouse movement.
I don't want to use a external mouse so I'm looking for a solution for it.
Lowerig the mouse sensivity over the OS X "Mouse" preference panel seems to help. You can up it in the Trackpad PrefPane or in the Synaptics PrefPane (depends on what you have installed).
--> When you lower it in Apples PrefPane and upper it in the 3rd party you will have the same mouse speed with less random movement.

But I wonder if there won't be a complete solution cause so many people use the S10e Hackintosh and I don't find a lot of complains in the internet. (I thinkt it would be alrdy fixed in S10eEnabler if this was a known bug).

I alrdy reinstalled my system about 4 times, used different OS X 10.6 Versions and tried a lot of kexts for the mouse but I never got a working solution.

Would it be possible that it's a mechanical bug (I opened my lenovo a lot of times, maybe there is too much pressure on the trackpad (Screews too tight))

Can anyone who has this bugs see similaritys?

Sry for my english, I'm german..
