can you reproduce this issue with a newer version of X? If not, this will end up as WONTFIX, since we don't have the manpower to maintain releases that old. I could download the latest version of Xorg, compile it, and run it, but I haven't time to do that - it would take me several hours. I already downloaded CentOS 5.2, which is a current Linux distribution (equivalent to the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux), only to find that it uses Xorg 7.1.1. An Xorg developer could test to see if the problem is present in 7.2 in 1 minute or less - simply restart X and try the mouse buttons without moving the mouse. I appreciate that this is not your preferred strategy for bug reporting, but from this user's perspective (and probably many others too), it is the only practical one. I've already spent time investigating the problem and hope that my description will prompt someone to check that the bug has been fixed or is not reproducible. It would be sad to close the report as WONTFIX if it's still present in 7.2. > An Xorg developer could test to see if the problem is present in 7.2 in 1

AFAIK most of us use 7.4 or later. I for example would have to recompile the
whole stack as I only have computers running 1.5 and git master.
Anyway, I haven't seen this issue, ever. Hence I'd guess it has been fixed.
The reason why we would need you to test it is because you have a setup where
the bug occurs. By upgrading to a newer version and reproducing the exact
steps, you are the only one who can confirm that the bug actually has
disappeared. I - and others - can only say "never noticed it", which isn't
quite the same.
That's fine. If you can't spot it in 7.4 I'd assume that it's fixed somewhere between 7.2 and 7.4. Thanks. claiming as fixed in server 1.5 at least, please reopen if it occurs again. Confirmed fixed in Xorg 1.5 (tested using Ubuntu 8.10). Thanks. |
