Tim Banchi, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg 1363070 Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information. As well, given the information from the prior release is already available, testing a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

In that case, moving the mouse marks the underlying text (thus imitating a continuous left-click). This malbehaviour can be temporarily stopped when shortly using one PS/2 device. After a while the same symptoms reappear. Setup: Dell D430 docked to a Dell D/dock PD01x. The second PS/2 device is an (switched off) Logitech TrackMan Live! (infrared mouse connected via a PS/2 receiver). This bug appears under 12.04 LTS Unity and 14.04 with Xfce, KDE or Unity (always using the latest kernels). Using KDE the bug appears more often than when using XFCE. To resolve the issue: disconnect the external Trackman Live PS/2 device from the docking station. This bug drove me crazy. Only by accident I disconnected the Trackman and since then my USB mouse works well again. I verified that the bug reappears as soon as I connect the TrackMan again and I used different USB mice (as I thought that it might be a USB problem). It did not happen under Windows, so it is not hardware related. If this bug is going to be followed up I can test with a normal PS/2 mouse (instead of the TrackMan Live) if the same bug happens or would be happy to provide logging data.
