Having the same issue in Maverick for several days: Left mouse button often "stucks" in a clicked state, in while focused in Nautilus, Empathy, Chromium, GIMP, etc. Moving the mouse results in dragging the window (if ALT was pressed) or highlighting bunches of text. Clicking the mouse button doesn't help.
I use another workaround: unplug my (A4tech wired) mouse, click the left button on the touchpad, replug the mouse back. Everything works for several minutes, then starts going crazy again. -- Mouse clicks stop working sporadically https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41301 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
