Bug Description

Binary package hint: xscreensaver

I'm using a Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer USB (the one with 2 thumb keys, scroll wheel and cable).
Normally i can use all the buttons and the wheel in an ordinary way.
For example: Thumb keys to go on previous pages in Firefox or Nautilus, wheel to scroll.
But after i quit the xscreensaver, I always have to press a mouse button + the scroll wheel to scroll. Same with thumb keys.
After a restart everything is back to normal.

My mouse Section from xorg.conf:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "Configured Mouse"
    Driver "mouse"
    Option "CorePointer"
    Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
    Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
    Option "Buttons" "7"
EndSection

Does anyone know how to solve that problem except for not using xscreensaver?

The problem appears to happen with both of them

according to upstream this is a xscreensaver issue rather than a gnome-screensaver one. rejecting this task.
