This continues under the most recent kernel for Ibex - I'm running 2.6.27-10-generic, fully up to date with all packages in main, universe, restricted and multiverse. And it's absolutely maddening.

[Bug 296167] Re: X.org will intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks on Ibex with Xinerama
further testing on my setup shows that the bug triggerability is dependent on graphics load, since nvidia xrender performance ispoormultiple firefox sessions, vmware screens, terminal server screens, all seem to do the trick. Moving the mouse quickly across the gpu boundary with no load will not trigger the bug, but any combination of xrender apps and/or 3d apps running will allow me to trigger the bug very reliably. Interestingly enough, coming back from a long idle can cause it as well, which i could assume, is also a manifestation of the load issue as well as the video cards are waking up at this point. cheers, x -- X.org will intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks on Ibex with Xinerama https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296167 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 296167] Re: X.org will intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks on Ibex with Xinerama
confirmed and killing my productivity... this may be helpful in tracking it down. system specs: Ubuntu 8.10 Intel Q6600 @ 3.2Ghz Asus P5E WS Pro Mainboard 8GB ram 2 x Nvidia 8600GTS (177.80 drivers) Screen setup: 3 screens, each a separate x session all merged with xinerama, arranged from left to right as: GPU0(screen0), GPU1(Screen0), GPU1(screen1). All normal orientation and all 1680 x 1050 screens. Always appears to happen when the mouse is moving across the GPU boundary. And here is the interesting bit that may help solve this. I often run 1 application on each screen but not maximized to the screen, there is a one inch gap or so around the edges of each application window on each screen. The apps that are on GPU1S0 (middle) and GPU1S1(right) have custom cursor icons, when the mouse bugs out, if i move the mouse to GPU0S0 (left) and put it in the area where the windows are on the other screens, the cursor icon changes and moving it around more subtly i can get the various cursor from the apps that are running on the other 2 screens (2 instances of the same app so i can't tell which screen X thinks the mouse is really on). Clicking anywhere has no effect, despite attempts to click on the left screen to create action on one of the others. Testing: To test this hypothesis i setup 3 instances of xev, one on each screen roughly the same size and in the same place. I trigger the bug (waving mouse back and forth quickly across the gpu boundary seems to be 100% effective at causing this in a short amount of time, thus i recommend everyone avoid doing this when you don't want to reboot X). results: movement on GPU0S0 (left) in the area of the xev window on GPU1S0 (center) triggers events on the xev on GPU1S0 (center), indicating that X thinks the mouse is one screen to the right of where it is displayed, presses and releases are also recorded although they have no effect on running applications (probably because the coordinates sent to the app are out of bounds). Mouse movement / events anywhere on GPU1S0 or GPU1S1 cause no xev events on any screen indicating its not simply an off by 1 screen issue. this and everything else we've seen indicates to me this is a problem in handing off cursor control from 1 gpu to the the other gpu. I'm out of time tonight but i will try disabling hardware acceleration of the cursor to see if it has any effect on this. I could also rearrange my screens to further test the GPU boundary theory. cheers, x -- X.org will intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks on Ibex with Xinerama https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296167 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Seconded on the importance issue. The only way to resolve the problem that I've found so far is to CTRL-ALT-DEL and kill my entire session. Because not all my apps have decent keyboard shortcuts, they can't all be quit cleanly, resulting in lost work.

[Bug 296167] Re: X.org will intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks on Ibex with Xinerama
After having run into this problem twice within 15 minutes I noticed exactly what I was doing when it happened, and tried repeating it. In both cases, I was moving out of a firefox window on my Screen0 to a window on Screen1. After a little experimentation, now I can pretty much cause the mouse to quite working withing 30 seconds of trying. Open up two firefox windows and put one each screen, leaving a small gap of background between the firefox window and the edge of the screen. Now flick your mouse between both firefox windows (I have focus following the mouse). For me, within 20 flicks the mouse stops working and starts misbehaving. I've also gotten it to start misbehaving with two emacs windows, but firefox seems the best choice for reproducing it quickly for me. Someone else should give the above method a try and confirm it reproduces the problem in a short time.

[Bug 296167] Re: X.org will intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks on Ibex with Xinerama
I have the same issue. The main difference is that I'm using a Matrox G550 with xinerama instead of nvidia as everyone else here seems to be using. I've been running into the problem on average about once a day. Restarting X fixes the problem. I had been running Hardy for 6 months with no problem on the exact same setup. After reading this ticket yesterday, I opened an xev on each of my two heads. After loosing the ability to click and change focus I experimented with those two xev windows. It seems that when I move the mouse around the screen0, the xev on screen1 starts showing events. Before the problem, moving the mouse in the xev window produced coordinates around 2080,600. After the mouse problem started, hovering on the xev window didn't produce events, but moving around screen 0 at location 800,600 did produce events and the events had the coordinates 800,600. In other words the events seemed to be coming from a location exactly one screen width ( in my case 1280 ) away from where they were supposed to be. Also, I noticed that the cursor changed from the usual pointer to the text entry cursor on screen0 corresponding to the placement of windows on screen1, again exactly one screen away. Just for full disclosure, the xorg mga driver in intrepid is broken and needs a patch to get xinerama working in the first place. See bug 292214 for details. But after finding this ticket, I think my mga issues are independent of this mouse issue. -- X.org will intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks on Ibex with Xinerama https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296167 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

As a followup, switching to a TwinView setup only works if Xinerama stays off completely - If I turn on TwinView on each of the two cards and turn in Xinerama the problem will still appear. If I leave Xinerama off - and so end up with two X screens each of which is spread over two monitors, the mouse will work, it's just not terribly functional the there are two task bars, each of which is spread over two screens and windows can't move between the two screens. On the upside, it's way faster.

I've struggled with twinview as well before upgrading to 3 monitors. It will do it's own xinerama type implementation, but I've noticed that the nvidia-settings does not turn off xinerama in the xorg.conf if it has already been set. This is usually only a problem if you merge settings when saving your xorg.conf. Double check your xorg.conf and make sure you don't still have xinerama enabled, then reboot. That may prevent the task bar from spanning across two monitors. on a side note, I read that 8.10 was supposed to be implementing some new Xrandr features, that were supposed to allow those of us with multiple displays to can xinerama, but I have yet to figure out how to make that work, or if it's possible with the proprietary nvidia drivers. -- X.org will intermittently stop responding to mouse clicks on Ibex with Xinerama https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296167 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
