Two of the mice on our four brand new Sun 3/60's lost vertical motion in any window environment we tried (Suntools, XView and NeWS), so we deduced the problem to be hardware. (Besides, we're all software people here. Any problem we can't solve has to be a hardware problem! :-) Since the systems were still under warranty, we simply called Sun and had them replace the mice, and the problem was solved. With a 50% failure rate at our site for the new mice, I'm surprised more people haven't run into this problem.
