Description Willem Hendriks 2007-12-06 14:13:12 UTC
When i switch from my console to xorg (alt-F9) my mousebuffer gets automaticly pasted. (xorg)

For instance: I open an xterm, type some text and select it. When i do a switch to a console, and get back to my X with Alt-F9, the text is automaticly pasted int my xterm. As if i pressed the mouse3-butten.

Originaly this message was posted on freebsd-mailing list, with some replys:

"I've noticed this too but thought I had misconfigured something
or that it was related to sysutils/screen from where I was switching
back to X. Glad to see that others are affected by this as well;
so it's really a bug."

"I'm seeing this on Debian GNU/Linux, with the same version of X, so it's
not a FreeBSD issue"

this was a bug in the evdev driver which was fixed, but i guess bsd_mouse.c is still buggy.
