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.
