After upgrading to xorg-1.5.3-r5, I started "losing" some mouse clicks : my mouse works OK for some time (xorg gets a click event, this can be seen to xev) and then one or two clicks are lost (no events). This happens in all applications, qt or gtk. Moreover, if I use "AutoAddDevices" "False" in xorg.conf so as to use the old drivers, my mouse doesn't work at all with the same options as before or with evdev or mouse as driver and microsoft, imps/2, etc. as protocol. This forum entry describes a problem very similar, but with a trackpad : http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-917830.html . I have x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.1.3 (it's ~amd64 but had the same problem with the previous version). This is the output of "xinput list" : "Virtual core keyboard" id=0 [XKeyboard] Num_keys is 248 Min_keycode is 8 Max_keycode is 255 "Virtual core pointer" id=1 [XPointer] Num_buttons is 32 Num_axes is 2 Mode is Relative Motion_buffer is 256 Axis 0 : Min_value is 0 Max_value is -1 Resolution is 0 Axis 1 : Min_value is 0 Max_value is -1 Resolution is 0 "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" id=2 [XExtensionKeyboard] Num_keys is 248 Min_keycode is 8 Max_keycode is 255 "Microsoft Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical?" id=3 [XExtensionPointer] Num_buttons is 32 Num_axes is 2 Mode is Relative Motion_buffer is 256 Axis 0 : Min_value is -1 Max_value is -1 Resolution is 1 Axis 1 : Min_value is -1 Max_value is -1 Resolution is 1 Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to xorg-1.5.3-r5 and stay with the default config (hal autoconfiguration of devices with evdev) 2. Click here and there on things that give a visual feedback or with xev open. Actual Results: Some clicks are "lost". Expected Results: All clicks are processed.
Please post your `emerge --info', and attach the Xorg log file.

Well, I'm now unable to reproduce the bug, so we might just as well close it unless you get another report. The fact that the old way of configuring the mouse doesn't work anymore is of no great concern to me and is not actually the object of this bug report anyways. I'm quite sure I didn't change anything important, expect having used my system with XDMCP (from another computer with Xorg 1.3 and the same mouse, to check for any hardware related problems). It works as expected now... So, sorry if this proves out to be a false alarm. I'll post the logs you asked for, in case it serves. emerge --info outputs : Portage 2.1.6.7 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0, gcc-4.3.3, glibc-2.8_p20080602-r1, 2.6.27-gentoo-r8 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.27-gentoo-r8-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-2_CPU_6300_@_1.86GHz-with-glibc2.2.5 Timestamp of tree: Tue, 14 Apr 2009 00:45:01 +0000 distcc 3.0 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [enabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p39 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.7 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r13, 2.5.2-r7 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 dev-util/cmake: 2.4.8 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.11.1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.63 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.27-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=core2" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config /var/lib/hsqldb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/language.dat.d /etc/texmf/language.def.d /etc/texmf/updmap.d /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=core2" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distcc distlocks fixpackages parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://gentoo.arcticnetwork.ca/pub/gentoo/ ftp://mirrors.tera-byte.com/pub/gentoo ftp://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/gentoo-distfiles/ http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo http://lug.mtu.edu/gentoo/ " LANG="fr_CA.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS="fr" MAKEOPTS="-j4" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise /usr/portage/local/layman/pd-overlay /usr/portage/local/layman/pro-audio" SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl alsa amd64 berkdb bzip2 cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dbus dri dvd dvdr fortran gdbm gpm hal iconv isdnlog jpeg kde midi mmx mmxext mudflap multilib ncurses nls nptl nptlonly opengl openmp pam pcre perl pppd python qt3 qt4 readline reflection session spl sse sse2 ssl ssse3 sysfs tcpd unicode xorg zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev keyboard mouse" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="fr" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="intel nvidia v4l" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
