[Bug 550047] [NEW] Spurious mouse events cause double clicks

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

[This seems to be the same as bug #27175, but since that was marked as
fixed long ago I'm opening a new one]

Occasionally single clicks cause results that would only be expected from double clicks. For example:
- Click on a window title bar to focus the window occasionally causes it to maximize
- Click on a document in nautilus to select it occasionally opens the document
- Clicking on toolbar buttons in any app occasionally causes the button action to occur twice

On an updated fresh install of 10.4 beta 1 (xorg 1:7.5+3ubuntu1), with
home directory preserved from a previous install of 9.10, where this
problem did not occur.

The log from xev of this problem looks like this (from a single click):

ButtonPress event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
    root 0x15d, subw 0x0, time 14769063, (80,82), root:(1819,659),
    state 0x0, button 1, same_screen YES

ButtonRelease event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
    root 0x15d, subw 0x0, time 14769159, (80,82), root:(1819,659),
    state 0x100, button 1, same_screen YES
