I have a custom built desktop PC, that has a card reader. Whenever I put an SD card in it, the mouse is slow and not smooth anymore.



A little bit like mice use to feel when their ball was dirty (sorry if you are under 25, you may be too young to remember these goold old days).



It seems to be worse when there's a file transfer with the card, but even when it's not the case, the mouse slows down.



I suppose that an Intel i7 should be able to handle a mouse correctly, so there may be a problem somewhere.



I use Ubuntu 18.04.
