Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
Ubuntu 8.10
The mouse loses it's ability to affect the desktop after seemingly a random amount of time of normal use. It starts working again when I restart the X server.
I can still move the mouse around but it has no affect on anything, e.g. clicking doesn't work, tooltips don't come up etc.
The keyboard is still fully operational.
I've tried:
- different mice and unplugging and plugging back in.
- killing off all applications running one by one, metacity, nautilus, gnome-panel and all user apps
There is nothing in xorg log, dmesg, messages or any of the system logs at the time of the mouse fail.
I have attached my xorg config because I use xinerama, which could well be the problem (it's a usual stumbling block).
Are there any more debuging methods worth trying ?

Hi x3n,
Thanks for including the attached files. Could you also include your /var/log/ Xorg.0. log?
