I am xinerama on a NVIDIA NVS440 with four monitors using the NVIDIA driver from official repository. This card has 2 GPUs.

In this configuration the mouse buttons randomly stop working. The mouse moves but you cannot make click.

This bug is reported on many sites like these:

It seems that this bug is solved on last versions of x11-xserver.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
The bug happens many times in usual working day. You can simulate the behaviour using xautomation package with the following command:

#> xte "mousemove 1400 0"

You can change the 1400 by other coordinates on the screen.
Actual Results:  
The mouse moves but you cannot click.

Expected Results:  
The mouse must move an click as usual.

In the forums listed before I have found a workaround to revive the mouse when the bug appears. Using the xautomation package with the following command the mouse starts to work again:

#> xte "mousemove 0 0"
