Mouse calibration

Hello all,

I play Torcs on an HP Elitebook 8530W, running Fedora 14, and Torcs 1.3.1.

I have a lot of problems with mouse calibration though.

When I calibrate the mouse, often the top edge of the screen is not
accelerating or braking, and everything else below that is braking.


The resolution on this laptop is quite high - 1920x1200 - could this
be causing the calibration system some issues?

Any suggestions/things I can try?
Can I view the settings of the calibration?

I'm working away from home, and don't have access to recovery CDs, so
I prefer not to try messing with Xorg config files, as it could leave
me without a working laptop.

PS. Here is the output of grep -i mouse /var/log/Xorg.0.log if it's of any use:
