2013-05-19 06:18:16 Andrew Marsden description Under GNOME 3, the use of the mouse-click stops occasionally, though I can still move the mouse around and can still click on items in the Activities screen and the top-bar. I can use alt-tab to cycle windows and can still type into already-active textboxes in windows, but I cannot click within the windows, and the mouse is not picked up at all by the windows. I can open the alt-f2 "run command" dialogue, but cannot type into it. The workaround I'm using is to open terminal (ctrl-alt-T) and run "gnome-shell -r", and restarting that command every time I have the problem again. Please ask if there's anything to help with.
