Bug#442200: xorg: periodically stops responding to mouse clicks or window changes
Package: xorg
Version: 1:7.1.0-19
Severity: normal
Not entirely sure where to report this or how to go about starting to
troubleshoot or track this problem down, but periodically my X session
will become almost completely unresponsive. The applications will
continue to update their windows/display. And if the mouse is still
visible, it can be moved around the screen. However, clicking on
anything with the mouse fails to elicit the normal response (focusing a
window, opening a menu, launching an application, etc).
If the last focused window allowed text entry the keyboard will continue
to enter into it. However, any attempt to change windows (via
keybinds), kill the X session (CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE), or switch to a VT
(CTRL+ALT+[1=6]) all produce no response.
Suggestions on where to beginning tracking this down or possible
reassignment of this bug to a more appropriate package would be most
appreciated.
