Funny, I thought about that thread when I saw it was taking one click
twice too.  May want to check on that.  If you look in the Xorg.0.log
file in /var/log it should tell you what it tries to see it as.  It may
be seeing it as the wrong thing.  This may help too:

See what that says and let us know if we can help, or it fixes it.  I
may would believe dmesg myself.  Make sure you and a editor gets along
though.  GUI may not come up at all if it can't find a little rat
running around.
