Are you sure this is the input driver rather than the x-server? I've
been happily using this machine in other ways for a week without trouble
- and I'm sure that the mouse-click itself isn't the issue. What I think
is happening is that clicking the mouse under those particular
circumstances makes xfig ask a specific request of the x-server, which
causes the server to crash.
I think that the strace file contains something useful, though I don't
know how to interpret it, the last fragment looks relevant:
