[Bug 1519082] Re: Left mouse bottom stops working

 

Chris,

I tried using a different kernel and an older installation. The left
mouse button error occurred again in each case. I connected this
keyboard and mouse to a windows 10 system and the left mouse button
stopped working at times yet again. Simply, this isn't a software bug at
all. Let alone an xorg bug.

I removed the plastic cover from the mouse. Then started testing
directly with screw driver on the mouse button electronic. I kept
clicking for a while and the error never appeared?

I guess I needed to clean my mouse. I haven't experienced the left mouse
button error since. It works fine right now.

Title:
  Left mouse bottom stops working

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  At times the left mouse events stop working.  After a short moment the
  left mouse button starts working again. I'm using a Bluetooth mouse
  that connects to a dongle in a usb port.

  I was looking at the mouse events in three different test. As it turns out the mouse events stop showing up in all of these cases.
  xinput --test %id%
  sudo cat /dev/input/mouse0
  watch -d -n 0.1 cat /proc/interrupts

  It's hard to spot when the interrupts stop showing up. You'll need to
  align and overlap the terminals closely and keep clicking until it
  occurs. If more people can reproduce this test. Then I figure it could
  be a kernal bug.
