Bug Description
Hi,
since the kernel update I installed yesterday or the day before, the function of the middle mouse click to open new tabs (in gnome, thunar and chrome and Firefox) with the wireless Logitech m185 mouse is lost and not restorable. Have to use a wired mouse now.
Ubuntu version 22.04.3 LTS 64bit
Linux version 6.2.0-36-generic (buildd@
Gnome version 42.9

Hello Manuel,
It seems like you're experiencing issues with the middle mouse click function after a kernel update on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS. Here are a few suggestions to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue: Check Mouse Settings:
Open the "Settings" application.
Navigate to the "Mouse & Touchpad" section.
Ensure that the middle mouse button is configured correctly for opening new tabs or performing the desired action.
Review Kernel Modules:
Check if the necessary kernel modules for your wireless Logitech M185 mouse are loaded. You can do this by running the following command in the terminal:
lsmod | grep <your_mouse_module>
Replace <your_mouse_module> with the appropriate module name for your Logitech mouse.
Update Mouse Drivers:
Ensure that your system has the latest mouse drivers installed. You can do this by updating your system using the following commands:
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
Check Xorg Configuration:
Review your Xorg configuration to ensure that the mouse settings are correctly configured. You can check the Xorg log for any relevant information.
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep mouse
Reconfigure Input Devices:
You can try reconfiguring your input devices using the following command:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver- xorg-input- all
Check Chrome and Firefox Settings:
Make sure that the middle mouse click is configured correctly within the settings of Chrome and Firefox.
Downgrade Kernel:
If the issue started after a kernel update, you might consider reverting to the previous kernel version. You can do this through the GRUB menu during the boot process.
