 Sometimes mine (Teal Indigo2 R4400 @ 250MHz) would go for several hours
before I would encounter the "BUZZ", but yeah... just tape the mouse or
generate some significant I/O and it returns to normal.

 Mine was weird.. it would sometimes act up in bursts, then other times
go for hours without a problem.

 I got so used to it that I developed almost a natural instinct to tap the
mouse.
