As Bryan I've also recently experienced the same problem. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, upgraded from 8.10 via 9.04. I have not experienced the problem on the previous versions, but have seen it on and off for a few days now.
The mouse-click symptoms are pretty much the same as described. I can move the pointer, but the mouse does not react to links, does not highlight icons, nor show help-text when held above time/date or other symbols. In addition: - Alt+tab does not work - Alt+space does not work - Ctrl+tab does work - Ctrl+Alt+arrow does shift workspace - Ctrl+Alt+backspace works, and usually solves the problem (but is annoying) - Alt+F1 will highlight the Applications-menu-text, but the menu fails to show - Alt+F2 does work - Right-clicking will occationally solve the problem - Clicking my processor-log-item, opening my system settings usually triggers the bug - When the bug is "active" update manger says "failed to grab the pointer" -- Mouse clicks stop working sporadically https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41301 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
