Not sure if proper source but when downgrading can't duplicate at will.
(dr to libutouch-geis1_2.2.3-0ubuntu1, though haven't given a long test
to inadvertent occurrences
Recently here & with others the left click 'select' has been 'randomly'
getting stuck on, causing the cursor to select everything in it's path
& otherwise be unresponsive, ie. nothing can be clicked on.
At least here the effect lasts for about 20 -30 sec's, when it happens
if stopping all activity the cursor & control return in that time frame
It is also seen on occasion as a 'stuck' grab, same deal, nothing can be
done till something releases. Additionally I've a few instances where
suddenly the left click is non-functional, again control returns within
20 -30 sec's
With a little practice have been able to cause this to happen within a few
attempts, basically moving the cursor with left button depressed (highlight)
combined with a small tap.
So will attach 2 video's with short descriptions
It's also possible disabling the tap to click in g-s-d may prevent this,
again no long term test
