Well, I have been trying the various workarounds suggested in this thread, and it seems that the workaround suggested by Dimitri in post #120 (sudo modprobe -r psmouse && sudo modeprobe psmous) gets both my mouse (swiftpoint) and trackpad (synaptics) working normally. Unfortunately, it doesn't last long (maybe 15 minutes or so), until it comes back.
By the way, I've just seen in my update manager that I'm about to get a new kernel (2.6.38-13-generic) and a new version of X. I'll install these and see if that changes anything. If the bug still rears it's ugly head, I will try to do the "restart x-server" workaround, and see if that will work... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41301 Title: Mouse clicks stop working sporadically To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/41301/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
