i have logitech m570 which has the same problem (approx. 1.5 yr since purchase) - there are several utils that mitigate the problem on windows, e. g. http://www.wincert.net/tips/hardware/2684-logitech-mouse- double-click-issues. it would be nice to have such thing for linux as well.

Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Arch Linux: New Bug description: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-mouse Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-mouse xserver-xorg-input-mouse: Instalado: 1:1.4.0-1 Candidato: 1:1.4.0-1 Tabela de Versão: *** 1:1.4.0-1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status What I expected was: Single Click. What happens: Mouse double clicks. This bug applies to the base operating system and all software installed on my system. Randomly the mouse responds with two mouse clicks when I click only once. Witch turns my system unusable: I try to close a windows, and the system closes that windows, and the one below. I try to right click something and the system right clicks and executes one of the menu options.. Etc.. Etc... When this problem happens during some time, then it disappears, then It comes back. The behaviour of the bug seems perfectly random to me. It is more frequent with the right button, than with the left one. Plus, this isn't an hardware fault because it doesn't happen in other operating systems. This is the 'xev' command output where you can see the erratic behaviour of the mouse. I single clicked two times, one of them was recorded by 'xev' as a single click, the second one was recorded as a double click.
