Hi,

after some time of work in open office 3 writer mouse stops to behave in normal way.
Right button doesn't work anymore. Scroll button does not scroll byt zoomes the page.

Only restart of Xopg by alt ctrl backspace helps.

If you need more info please let me know how to get it.

Good luck
Peter

Do the mouse buttons only stop working within writer or also outside of it?

Hi,

Than it is not possible to click anywhere with right button. I have tried to to close other windows by right clicking in the panel and choosing close option, but that menu did not appear. Also click on desktop doesnt work.

Sometimes this happens after 5 minutes. Sometimes I work two hours and everything works fine. Today I had to restart Xorg three times.

I may be wrong but this sounds like it might be an Xorg bug of some sort? It shouldn't allow apps to do this, I think?

To be clear I can't reproduce this issue on my installation of OpenOffice.org 3.0 on multiple systems, and this is the first report I have received of this and there are many users using OOo 3.0 on Ubuntu.

Hi peter-iring,

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file from after reproducing this issue. If you've made any customizations to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` too.
