This is totally unrelated and I apologize for putting it in this bug thread, feel free to email me privately on it if you want, but I've had no success with googling to even figure out where to report this. I guess it's pretty obscure. I'm clueless about what to open a bug against, if this is a bug. Maybe you can point me in the right direction?
On my HP Envy 15 with Ubuntu 12.04, it will get into this odd state where it doesn't answer mouse/touchpad clicks, or keyboard commands such as changing to another desktop (I have that set for alt-1 ~ alt-0, 10 virtual desktops). The mouse cursor moves normally, but nothing happens. However, I can still use the keyboard to type in whatever window has the focus on my current desktop. During this time, the wireless on/off light on F-12 is alternating between white (connected) and orange (off/connecting) with a fast blink. After anywhere from 15 seconds to a full minute, the wireless light stops blinking and goes back to solid white, then all of the key commands or mouse clicks will happen; it queues them up while in that state. Even stranger is that if it's in that state and I hit F12 (turns off the wireless) the problem immediately goes away and any pending actions immediately execute. If I run top in a shell and wait for it to happen (doesn't take long, it'll do it every few minutes), I see no unusual CPU consumption or high load averages. So far, nothing has jumped out at me from syslog, either. If you have any ideas where I should look for clues as to the issue, or if you know of any bugs that sound like this, I'd appreciate any pointers. I installed fglrx manually (and it's working) because I couldn't get it to install through jockey, if that might have any bearing on this. Thanks!
