Comment 13 for bug 119194

This seems to be a problem cause by typing - it has actually happened twice now just during typing into the comment box for this bug - both times causing the text to be highlighted, and subsequently deleted by the next key press! Also, the mouse appears to be clicking (and right-clicking) at random, and also moving slowly in a diagonal direction for up to a few seconds (either down-left or up-right usually).

After the problem has happened, I lose the ability to click on dialogue boxes or to raise certain windows, but some mouse actions still appear to work. The only wait to gain (albeit temporarily) full mouse functionality is to CTRL-ALT-F1 to a text console and CTRL-ALT-F7 back to my X session.

Not entirely sure if this bug I'm describing here is exactly the same bug, but I certainly seem to be getting the same errors appearing in dmesg (attached) as has been described by other people. Whether this be causation or correlation, I'm not certain.
