Information about the mouse is usually not directly available for you to use. To get it, you have to wait for a GdkEvent to be fired and then mask out GDK_MOTION_NOTIFY to see if it was a mouse move. There are other examples of this throughout the code, but don't hesitate to ask if you can't find one.

Can you help with this problem?
