Is this really related to the linked gnome-shell bug?  It doesn't look
related to me.  This bug is completely reproducible whereas the linked
one seems to be an intermittent complete failure of the shell.

@Arnaud D this bug is specifically about the Authorization dialog in the
Software and Updates app.  It is not a general problem with the mouse.
In fact it is nothing to do with the mouse at all.

[Bug 1734095] Re: Software & Updates not showing authorization popup [gnome-shell[N]: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal failed]

2019-11-19 Thread Arnaud D
After days of fresh reinstallations and tests, I finally found what was
causing this on my end and finally solved it by using a xorg
configuration override 10-evdev.conf as shown on [1]

Offender: Gaming mouse driver (Saitek Cyborg R.A.T.9 Wireless Mouse) 
Driver: libinput

After a bit of research, I found that this mouse is known to be
malfunctioning with the default settings on Xorg. Despite working at a
first look, the default configuration is causing the below symptoms as
explained by [2]

After being plugged, the mouse will seems to work, but you may experience 
different issues :
* You cannot move windows around when grabbing the window's title bar. (happens 
with Openbox and other Window manager)
* You cannot click on buttons.
* You cannot get the focus on windows.
* You cannot open menus, even with keyboard shortcuts.
* Display does not refresh (using Xcompmgr)
* Closing certain windows restores functionality until the mouse locks into a 
new window.

[1] https://github.com/rkruk/R.A.T.-Cyborg-Mouse-on-Linux [working solution for 
R.A.T.9 model]
[2] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mad_Catz_Mouse

I hope this helps somes outta there

It is still an issue on 19.04.
Steps to replicate:
Open Software & Updates and switch to the Other Software tab and click one of 
the checkboxes. The window loses focus but the authentication dialog does not 
appear. If however a checkbox on the Ubuntu Software tab is clicked then the 
authentication dialog does appear.

2019-04-24 Thread Colin Law
For myself, I have not got any other applications open, and I have not got any 
Gnome shell extensions enabled (according to Gnome Tweaks).
There must be something significant about the fact that it only fails from the 
Other Software tab, it works from the Ubuntu S/W, Updates and Developer Options 
tabs.
There must be something unusual about the failing systems though, but what it 
is remains a mystery.

Just to confirm I can reproduce this 100% reliably in 18.10 and in Disco, as 
follows.
Open Software & Updates and switch to the Other Software tab and click one of 
the checkboxes the window loses focus but the authentication dialog does not 
appear (I have checked it is not under another window). If however I click a 
checkbox on the Ubuntu Software tab then the authentication dialog does appear.

Explaining the rls-dd-notfixing tagging, we reviewed the bug in our team
meeting. There has been one report only so far and those
warnings/similar problem exist upstream, we believe at this point that
the bug is neither new nor easy to trigger and while it would be nice to
fix it's not a candidate for release targetting in the current state

Hmm.

 - During one repro the only other application running was firefox so the 
options are limited.
 - Restart of gnome-shell (from tty1 or if gnome-temrminal had focus at the 
time of bug) should not fix the problem as far as I understand as the offending 
application would still hold the lock - but it does here.

PS. I don't have any extensions installed.
