jmspeex, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily 
folder, but the one at the top) following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional 
upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream 
kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this 
bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For 
example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc4

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next 
to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please 
remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  No more mouse events after using rdesktop

Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “rdesktop” package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  I'm running Ubuntu Dapper and "sometimes" X just stops sending any
  mouse events (or so it seems). This usually seems to be triggered by
  using rdesktop. At some point, my desktop becomes unusable. I can see
  the mouse pointer move, but I can't click on or interact with
  anything. If I manage to get the focus to a window, the keyboard works
  fine. Restarting metacity, gnome-panel, nautilus, ... doesn't seem to
  change anything. Usually, I end up killing X to get things working
  again. ...except the last time, I was able to start a new terminal
  using the keyboard only and it "unlocked the mouse" -- and everything
  started working fine again.

  There is no simple step to reproduce the problem, but rdesktop seems
  to make it happen more often. I have confirmation from another use who
  observed the same kind of behaviour on his machine (also seemed
  rdesktop-related).

  Also happens with Feisty.
