@Chris Halse Rogers,
I'm not quite sure how to install your testcase version. When I go to
uninstall the one I installed a few days ago from the PPA suggested by
Marco, it wants to uninstall every xorg related thing. When I went to
install your suggested one, it went ahead and installed it, but
@Chris Halse Rogers,
Ok, I've done some research, found a package called ppa-purge and purged
all unneeded xserver-xorg-input-evdev* and went back to the one that had
the mouse/kb troubles. Added your ppa and installed the testcase
version. Indeed, it fixes the problem. Odd thing though, the
@Chris Installing the xserver-xorg-input-evdev only (xorg-edgers ppa)
fixes the problem for me too. woot! TY @Marco for the suggestion..

You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu
I've ran the requested lsinputs and input-events.. and attached a file
for you to see. I didn't see any BTN_* events related to the keyboard
on any of the event numbers. I've also tried the udev urules file
suggested by Chris. No go on that one. The bug still happens.
I'll be here for the next
I turned on the debug level in udev. Sorry for not doing that
earlier. I'm kind of learning as I go. :) An updated udev log is
attached.

Keyboard
I'm also affected by this bug as well. Microsoft Digital Media Keyboard
v1.0a and Logitech M-BJ69 3-Button USB/PS/2 Optical Mouse. rmmod
usbhid;modprobe usbhid and/or unplugging kb and reinserting it does seem
to make it work again.

Keyboard special keys interfere with mouse
The Microsoft Digital Media KB I've got does have a zoom key. I've
attached my udev log. Hope it helps. Let me know if you need anything
else.

I did look at my /var/log/Xorg.0.log and it does seem there is a mouse
component of sorts in my kb as well. (or it thinks there is). I'll
attach the xorg.0.log too.
