I recent changed from Ubuntu to Xubuntu 12.04. The install worked great for a few days, but suddenly the left mouse button stopped working. The right click and scroll bars work fine.



After a bit of experimenting I discovered that the problem only happens when I set the session to Xubuntu at login. The mouse also works fine in my dual-booted Windows vista.



What could make my mouse stop working like that?

Check if you have xserver-xorg-input-evdev installed on your system:



sudo dpkg -s xserver-xorg-input-evdev


If yes, do:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa  

sudo apt-get update  

sudo apt-get upgrade


If no, do:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa  

sudo apt-get update  

sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-evdev


Reboot.
