Narrative:

From mia to atl. After leaving mia and diverting for WX using heading mode, we were cleared 'direct dublin sinca 1 arrival.' in cruise (37000 ft), approaching dbn, center asked if we showed on course. The FMS showed us on course approaching dbn and the 2 min alert light was flashing. We checked the dbn coordinates and they were correct. Upon switching to radio we realized that we were left of course. Center gave us a right turn and told us that we were going to pass west of dbn by about 13 mi, instead of passing over it, if we had continued on our course. Center then gave us 'direct canuk intersection.' we used the FMS to go direct and checked the coordinates in the FMS which were correct. The aircraft turned too far to the left. We then went back to radio and intercepted the 'sinca 1 arrival' in coordination with center. While approaching 'canuk' we checked the FMS and it indicated that we were right of course 7 mi. #1 and #2 INS indicated that we were off course. However, #3 INS agreed with radios that we were on course, we continued inbound and landed in atl. We asked the flight attendants if anyone in the cabin was using some type of electronic equipment. They said that there were several people playing electronic games.
