[Bug 90918] Re: Desktop-Effects Bug. Left Mouse Click doesn't work.

 

Here is how I solved this in Ubuntu 10.04. First, thanks for the tip
above to use Ctrl-Alt-Left Click for mouse clicks (Note: try also Ctrl-
Shft-Left Click, whichever work). This workaround enabled me to do:

Applications > Ubuntu Software Centre> Search for COMPIZ > install
"Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (ccsm) (Configure Compiz with
CompizConfig)".

Then, in top Gnome panel, go to System > Preferences > CompizConfig
Settings Manager > Preferenc (note typo in the UI; it's a gray button in
left frame, below "Window Management") > Clear the check box next to
"Enable integration into desktop environment".

Mouse buttons started to work normally again!

It seems to me like the bug might be in the Compiz "Enable integration
into desktop environment" in Ubuntu 10.04 (and higher?). I wish I was
technical enough to try verify myself. Thanks in advance for looking
into it.
