Hi, an update from my side. I've added the ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates repo and updated my system (it actually only updates libva and nvidia-settings packages).

Hi, I have been having this problem, and I fix it when it happens by hitting WinKey+D twice (to show the desktop and then to bring my windows back). This seems to restore the cursor's function in my session without needing to update any repos or log out and back in. It is not related to unity because I tried unity --replace which didn't fix it.

[Bug 773014] Re: Natty: GUI occasionally does not register mouse / touchpad clicks
I am experiencing the same bug with a Lenovo SL500, NVIDIA GeForce G 105M with the NVIDIA binary driver under Unity - I haven't tested classic. The touchpad worked fine in Ubuntu 10.10 (and still works fine under windows 7). If I don't move the pointer at all, but continue to click it doesn't start working again. Usually clicking only stops working for a second or so if I'm moving the pointer. In case it's relevant, the system also claims that the NVIDIA binary driver is installed but not in use, but compositing works, the proprietary NVIDIA configuration tool works, and the default Ubuntu monitor configuration tool does not work, so, I'm reasonably sure that the binary driver is being used (this is another bug, but I mention it in case they're related). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773014 Title: Natty: GUI occasionally does not register mouse / touchpad clicks -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

+1 More precisely, the cursor doesn't seem to even detect he is over a clickable element such as a line in a text editor or a link in the web browser. It just act like the ordinary pointer.

I will have a window open. No other windows are open or opening and failing to display. The mouse will simply choose to stop registering clicks in specific areas of the window. It appears to be that it loses its coordinates. (For example, in some applications, it registers the object to be clicked slightly higher on the screen than where it actually appears -- e.g. the mouse pointer changes its shape from pointer to grasping hand not when hovering on an object, but when hovering slightly above it.)
