I can't figure out what regexp to apply to the internet to find an
answer to this.  I am running Mint Xfce 7.3 and it has been solid.
But the past few weeks I've run into a few problems that seemed to
come from nowhere.

I'm finding that mouse events are getting messed up.  The mouse
pointer and keyboard seem to always work.  The mouse events do not.
Sometimes widgets do not respond to mouse-over or clicks.  I've seen
occasional phantom responses in when I didn't click.  I've seen
buttons "depress" when clicked, but there is no other response.  It
will often start as specific windows or specific regions of windows
and or system menus.  It quickly degrades to no mouse functionality
other than the pointer moving.   I haven't seen that the track pad
behaves any different from the mouse.

I can temporarily clear the problem by switching to a text console and
then back to X.

I have tried different kernel versions, older and newer.  The older
and current had been working fine.  None of them work now.  I've tried
a few varying from ~3.13 through 4.4.0.

I tried installing Cinnamon to see if it was an Xfce thing, but the
behavior remained.

I haven't found a error log that provides any hints.

Any suggestions?  If I can't clear this up, I'm going to have to try a
clean re-install which would be a major downer.

Thanks!
Ty
