** Package changed: nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 (Ubuntu) => xorg
(Ubuntu)

** Description changed:

  From time to time my mouse starts acting weird. The pointer still moves
  as expected but on clicks it reacts as if the position didn't change
  (i.e. wherever I click, the reaction stays the same.)
  
  Since this happens in KDE as well as in XFCE, I think this bug is in
  xorg or hald. But I'm not quite sure where exactly.
  
  I'm running an up-to-date kubuntu 9.10 (amd64).
  
  edit: Got some additional information:
- GDM won't start. It just pops up a message that says it won't start due to the Error "(EE) HID 046a:0023: failed to initialize for relative axes.". 
+ GDM won't start. It just pops up a message that says it won't start due to the Error "(EE) HID 046a:0023: failed to initialize for relative axes.".
  046a:0023 is my keyboard. It has no axis. ("Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046a:0023 Cherry GmbH Cymotion Master Linux Keyboard")
  KDM starts without an error message.
  
  The mouse position seems not to be caught at one point but at an area (i.e. a textarea in a chatprogram or the menu of a window).
  As I tried to describe: The visible pointer is not caught at all. But when I click it reacts as if it was in the area where it's caught.
  
  I have no idea how to trigger the bug. It happens while watching movies
  or typing (it just happened while I wrote this). It once even happened
  directly after the login.
  
+ edit2:
+ This happens with the nv (xserver-xorg-video-nv-1:2.1.14-2ubuntu3) driver as well as with nvidia (nvidia-glx-185.18.36-0ubuntu9).
