Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse

Running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Beta 1 Live CD session as a VMWare Server 2.0.2 quest.
The Vmware graphical console runs on Windows XP and is connected to the VMware 
server over 10MBit Ethernet.
The VMware Server host is a Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Intel system.

I selected a solid background as desktop background in 10.04 Beta 1.
I switched the VMware console to full screen.
Then I opened a terminal window and dragged it vigorously around for about 10 
secs by clicking and dragging its title bar.
After some attempts, when I release the mouse button, the release event is not 
noticed by the window manager and
I can keep dragging around the window (although no mouse button is pressed).
The dragging stops when hit the Escape key.However,from then on left mouse 
button clicks are ignored:
I can't click on icons, nor select menus, nor start programs in the top menu 
bar.

Switching back the console from full screen mode to windowed mode and then 
dragging a window by using the right mouse
button and the menu item Move on the title bar and then dragging a little, 
restores the normal mouse behavior.

Apparently I can't use ubuntu-bug because I am behind an authenticating
proxy server.
