Wesley,
Yes…the ball is supposed to be loose in the socket. I'd strongly
suspect that the rollers inside the mouse are dirty. You'll see the twist open
cover where the ball sits. Open the cover and look at the rollers inside. IF
they look like they've got little rubber bands around the rollers…they're
dirty. They should be uniform from edge to edge. You may end up needing a
magnifying glass and a toothpick (I've found them to work the best…and have
the least possiblity of causing any damage) to clean them up properly.
Unplug the mouse from your Amiga before you start to work on it AND
MAKE SURE the Amiga is turned OFF before you either plug or unplug the mouse
from the Amiga!
Don
