[Bug 954545] [NEW] If I open a file from fslint's display of duplicate file sets the file opens but my trackball buttons are immediately disabled. I have confirmed this on mpgs, wmvs, and jpegs. My pointer can still be moved but neither trackball button causes any response. Usually cntrl-alt-T still works and from there I can do things with the terminal. I can "killall whatever-ap-the-file-was-opened-with" and sometimes that shuts off the ap and restores my trackball buttons. Sometimes instead it kills that ap and opens the same file with another ap. Sometimes this series of aps continues until it just keeps re-opening it with the same one over and over again. In that case, it is usually a web browser that it finishes being stuck on. This does NOT happen in Maverick. It happens in both of two Oneiric installations I have tried. The one I'm using now, which is hard drive based and a live disk version of it as well. It's worse in the live disk. I usually have to "killall Xorg" and relog to get control back.

Title:
  If I open a file from fslint's display of duplicate file sets the file
  opens but my trackball buttons are immediately disabled. I have
  confirmed this on mpgs, wmvs, and jpegs. My pointer can still be moved
  but neither trackball button causes any response. Usually cntrl-alt-T
  still works and from there I can do things with the terminal. I can
  "killall whatever-ap-the-file-was-opened-with" and sometimes that
  shuts off the ap and restores my trackball buttons. Sometimes instead
  it kills that ap and opens the same file with another ap. Sometimes
  this series of aps continues until it just keeps re-opening it with
  the same one over and over again. In that case, it is usually a web
  browser that it finishes being stuck on. This does NOT happen in
  Maverick. It happens in both of two Oneiric installations I have
