Probable related problem (random mouse release, not registered with 'xev').

1. Steps to reproduce:

grab window border with mouse. try resize in up and down. don't release mouse button. repeat. repeat 10-20 times.

Expected results:
success

Actual results:
mouse button released, you can't do it 20 times.

2. Same happens if you try to scroll up-down with scrollbar. You can't do it 20 times.

3. xev

xev|grep state.

I made same movement with mouse, with pressed button. I don't see "button" event until I release the button. I can move mouse up-down 20 times or more. so xev does not show release events

4. It can be often (but not always) fixed it by plugging and unplugging another mouse (i.e. I plug and unplug different mouse, after that my primary mouse start working)

5. When it happens, it happens also in Ubuntu running in Virtual box (when host is Ubuntu)

also, I dont have xserver-xorg-input-mouse installed (ubuntu 12.04)

apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-mouse
