Title:
Left mouse button stops working
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
This problem has plagued me for a few years across different laptops
and Ubuntu versions. Current I am experiencing this on a Dell Inspiron
15z running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
It typically starts after I have used the chat or call feature in
gmail, by clicking on the phone icon in the left chat margin. I am a
Firefox user and have not tested this with chrome etc. It has not
happened if i dont install google-talkplugin so it is quite possible
that the plugin is to blame.
Symptom
=======
The left mouse button on all attached mice - USB , Trackpad and touch - will not do anything .... however the right mouse button continues to work. This happens to all applications and also to the desktop. The keyboard continues to function as normal.
When this occurs , my solution is to Alt-F4 close all windows and log
out of the X session. When I re-login the left mouse button works as
normal.
This is an irritant and work disruptor as I have to save all browser and desktop applications to safe state before I logout to reset the mouse. I will appreciate any soltion or workaround.
