Csaba: If I understand correctly, no, it is only within the Gnome session while Brave is running (but does affect all programs running under Gnome). Once I exit Brave, the mouse appears to function normally, and once I return to the login screen it also functions normally (but unable to click in Windows if I boot to that). It is a mini-tower, no touch screen or trackpad. Of course it was happening every few minutes last night, but so far today it hasn't since I'm asking the experts 😀, so I can't see any recent dmesg that would be applicable.
Howard: It is Ubuntu 20.04. For various issues I experience, I have been thinking about wiping and installing 22.04, or some other flavor of Linux. As far as what I'm running within Gnome, sometimes it happens all by itself. Now under the hood there are various server programs running. MythTV just cause I haven't gotten around to killing it yet, already migrated the videos to Emby (that was a project, even with a DB query!). Emby. X2Go, but no active sessions running, and thinking of killing it as well since I haven't needed it for a while. CUPS. Probably a few other common services. (It does have parts of KDE and Light also installed for various programs.) On Mon, Aug 15, 2022 at 10:38 AM Howard White <[email protected]> wrote: > Curious Paul.
