Lucid: After the kernel update to 2.6.32-29.58 a mythbuntu/xubuntu system with a Logitech Cordless keyboard and mouse began exhibiting the behaviour described in this and related duplicate bugs - namely:
* loss of left-mouse functionality * xubuntu's graphical sudo GUI reporting "Other application has captured mouse, may be malicious key-logger" when using update-manager Triggers appeared to be: * pressing function key combinations or special media keys on the keyboard * some random time passing after log-in without doing anything except moving/clicking the mouse After finding this and duplicate bugs and reading the various solutions and suggested causes I decided to try restarting the affected PC with the previous kernel, 2.6.32-28.55, and the problem disappeared. I can't see anything obvious in the changelog to explain what may have introduced the problem on the particular system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/636311 Title: Keyboard special keys interfere with mouse -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
