Basically even something as simple as left click doesn't work
properly. I'm guessing it's timing related, but I can't find anywhere
to adjust it. The symptoms are single clicks get interpreted as double
or treble clicks, and when I try (especially in games) to do a "drag
to select", the area the mouse drags over bears precious little
resemblance to the are the mouse actually is. Combined with the
"double click effect" it makes the mouse - randomly :-( ! - almost
unusable.
It might well be tied into system lock-ups, as every now and then the
system simply stops responding, as in either the mouse and keyboard
just no longer work, or the mouse moves freely but the system just
ignores it.
Basically I just don't know how - or where - to start debugging it
(systemd, kde system)

only some more straws to grab at
- any hints in dmesg?
- if it is a USB mouse, have you tried plugging it into a different
port? Have you tried a different mouse (to be sure it's not a hardware
issue)
- have you tried xev?
- I have no idea if any of the settings in System
Settings/Accessibility/Mouse Navigation might help, or at least help
with debugging.
