Package: konqueror
Version: 4:4.4.5-1
Use of the middle mouse button in Konqueror, whether to open a link in
a new tab or simply to paste text, causes the browser to become
unresponsive. Worse, even if all Konqueror processes are killed, after
that very little or nothing can be done with any mouse clicks on the
KDE desktop or in any other applications. Full functionality can only
be restored if the user logs out first.
This may be a general KDE bug, except that it is only triggered by the
use of the middle mouse button in Konqueror. After that, use of the
mouse is severely limited at least. Keyboard control, however, is
still possible. Otherwise, actions with the middle mouse button in all
other applications do not cause the problem.
This is a problem that is difficult to reproduce. For this report I
tried to force it to occur not long after starting a desktop session,
but without any luck. I've learned to avoid using the middle mouse
button in Konqueror, which allows me to continue work indefinitely.
However, at such times, a single middle mouse click in Konqueror can
bring the session to an end.
The desktop machine on which this occurs was installed only six weeks
ago. The problem has been occurring for about the last three weeks.
