I just rebuilt the whole stack. The issue persists. Make sure you take exactly the following steps: 1) Press and hold the left mouse button with optical mouse, without moving the optical mouse or the other mouse 2) Start moving the trackpoint...no text will be selected 3) Move the optical mouse and text will begin to be selected from where the cursor ended up after step 2 (not where the mouse was when the left mouse button was originally pressed)
Doing the inverse (converse?) operation starting with the trackpoint mouse buttons and then moving the optical mouse has the exact same results. Do you think my config is wrong? I kind of had to hack the device sections so that I could have both trackpoint and USB mouse. - Joel On 08/11/2009 07:47 PM, Peter Hutterer wrote: > On Tue, Aug 11, 2009 at 09:56:12AM -0400, Joel Feiner wrote: >> I was going to file a bug report, but I'm not sure if this is a bug or a >> configuration issue, so I am posting it here first. >> >> I have a ThinkPad, which has a TrackPoint, and I use a USB optical >> mouse.
