Description of problem: After upgrading to kernel 4.1.8, detection of both left and right mouse clicks is erratic in Firefox 41.0.1. Sometimes detection is normal, and other times it takes several tries before the computer responds. Cursor movement and response seem normal at all times. At first I believed that the Adblock Plus add-on could be the source, but reverting to kernel 3.x without changing anything else eliminates the problem. Hardware involved: Dell Dimension E310 desktop Intel P4 64-bit capable processor 2 GB RAM On-board Intel gpu This computer is the one that had gpu issues during the testing of kernel 4.1.8. (Bug 16655) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Kernel 4.1.8 How reproducible: Always. At times the problem is bad enough to make Firefox all but unusable. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt to use the mouse to make selections in Firefox 41. 2. 3. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
Wired or wireless mouse/keyboard?

I knew I was forgetting something. Microsoft Wireless USB desktop set: Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 2000 Microsoft Wireless Multimedia Keyboard 1.1 Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop Receiver 2.1 This desktop set was with the computer when it was given to me in February 2013, and until now has worked flawlessly with Mageia using the universal PS/2 & USB mouse driver.
A newly-recharged set of nimh AA batteries in the mouse made no difference.

FWIW I had to go back to a wired Logitech mouse on this server as my wireless Logitech mouse started exhibiting exactly these symptoms. I thought it was the mouse. I changed the battery to make sure it wasn't that. Hard wired mouse works just fine.

My Logitech wireless keyboard/mouse set (MK320, with the unifying receiver) is working just fine on this computer. This one is AMD-based, using the server kernel, and a nvidia Geforce 6200 video card, so very different hardware from the one with the problem.
@ Thomas, Do you still have the hardware with that problem? If so: is this bug still valid in fully updated Mga5 and/or cauldron?

I still have the hardware, but the bug disappeared some time ago. Not sure when now. It may have been when I stopped using Mozilla's bleeding-edge Firefox and went with the version supplied with Mageia. As I recall, I had other problems with Firefox 41. Or, it could have disappeared with a new kernel. I just don't remember.
Closing as old then
