Re: Mouse event problems

I've heard a few stories of people putting their wireless mice in their pockets/bags and then trying to figure out their weird windows behavior. Fun times. Rich Richard Kolb II On Tue, Mar 29, 2016 at 8:16 PM, Tyson Sawyer wrote: > > On Mar 29, 2016 18:51, "Joshua Judson Rosen"

Re: Mouse event problems

I've been bitten by bad mouse problems enough times that when I see symptoms like yours, it's pretty much my go-to. I had someone in England call me some time back, and could *NOT* figure out her problem. Finally had her wipe her machine and start over... and it was still there. Which is

It's an option that could be explicitly disabled or enabled via xorg.conf; it or another similar sort of option could be enabled by default and in effect even if you don't actually have a config file (most people don't have an actual xorg.conf at this point at this point--everything just gets

Re: Mouse event problems

I would have thought hardware if the bad behavior wasn't temporarily cleared by switching consoles and I didn't get different (good vs. bad) behavior in different windows and different widgets within a window. ...still worth trying because it is easy to try. On Fri, Mar 25, 2016 at 1:44 PM,

Alternately, maybe a problem due to the use of "HWCursor" option in Xorg? I somewhat doubt that's something that can actually mess w/ behaviour other than rendering, but maybe? -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity. On March 25, 2016 1:44:57 PM EDT, Ken

Re: Mouse event problems

That *VERY* much sounds like hardware. Like, a lot. 1) If it's a wireless mouse, change the batteries. If it's *not* wireless, disable the trackpad and switch to a different external mouse. Assuming the issue goes away (which I bet it will), re-enable one, then the other, and see who's at
