Sam Brightman, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3010#bios an update to your BIOS is available (F8). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Once the BIOS is updated, then please mark this report Status New. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-f8 ** Tags added: regression-release ** Description changed: This problem began with the 14.04 upgrade. The mouse has always worked normally until then. - Approximately every 10 minutes - and possibly triggered by Alt-Tab - window switches/opening new windows - the mouse behaviour becomes rather - strange. Primarly, left-clicks are not registered properly to the - topmost window. They usually appear to go "through" to the window below - and it's not possible to switch focus to a new window (or any other - window). Mouse movement is unaffected and clicking on the original - window (which has grabbed the focus) seems to work. The Unity bar pops - out but is not clickable and rapidly re-hides. Sometimes individual - window elements are not usable even if the main window itself is. - Examples: - + Approximately every 10 minutes left-clicks are not registered properly to the topmost window. They usually appear to go "through" to the window below and it's not possible to switch focus to a new window (or any other window). Mouse movement is unaffected and clicking on the original window (which has grabbed the focus) seems to work. The Unity bar pops out but is not clickable and rapidly re-hides. Sometimes individual window elements are not usable even if the main window itself is. Examples: * In Thunderbird, left-pane account/folder selection works, but does not perform the corresponding update to the message list/preview panes when the folder selection changes. * dialogues are popped up where parts of the dialogue respond to clicks but other parts do not. Commonly, the dialogue title/menu bar is not responsive (it cannot be moved/closed). Sometimes right-clicking will restore focus to the appropriate window/area. Sometimes not. Unloading and reloading usbhid and hid_logitech modules does not help. - Restarting will fix the problem temporarily. I've found that switching - to a console and back will fix the problem temporarily too (Ctrl-Alt-F1, - Ctrl-Alt-F7). + Restarting will fix the problem temporarily. - Several very similar bugs exist for wireless headsets, mice and quite - often Logitech (although of course this is just a common brand) from - before 14.04, but for me this was never a problem previously. They are - being closed as expired even though they still exist in 14.04. Bug - #993655, Bug #1006156 and Bug #1337586 are examples. It is not 100% - clear to me if this is an xorg bug, but this is what was being suggested - in those tickets. The combination of module reloading not working with - console switching working (reinstall handlers?) does suggest X is - involved. + WORKAROUND: Switch to a console and back will fix the problem + temporarily via Ctrl-Alt-F1 and then Ctrl-Alt-F7.
